HOW TO USE

Speak as Suzy
Speak as Tony
Suzy: How is your new company?

Tony: So far so good. I love the open and relaxed working environment. It is a far cry from my last job.

Suzy: What do you mean?

Tony: At my last company, there were many rules and regulations that employees had to follow. The company was not very flexible when it came to workers taking time off or leaving work early.

Suzy: But your new company is better?

Tony: Much better. All the employees seem happy and satisfied with their jobs. I'm glad that I made the change. Right before I started this new job I was starting to have second thoughts. I almost changed my mind a few times.

Suzy: Well, it's a good thing that you didn't.

Tony: You can say that again.
