Hello, Anna speaking.

Hey, Anna. This is Jason.

Jason, where you've been hiding lately? You know it's been a long time since your last call. Have you been good?

Yes, how are you, Anna?

I'm fine. What have you been doing?

Working. I've been really busy these days. I got a promotion¹.

That's great! Congratulations!

Thanks. I'm feeling pretty good about myself, too. You know, bigger office, a raise, even an assistant.

That's good. So I guess I have to make an appointment to see you.

You're kidding.

How long have you been working there?

a bit of 2 years .This is a fast-moving company, and seniority isn't the only factor in deciding promotions².

How do you like your new boss?

She's very nice and open-minded.

Much better than the last one, huh?

He was a real slave-driver.He probably would have loved it if we were robots.

Good. Tonight. 8 o'clock.

8 it is. See you then.

Bye.
