A Grouch
Speak as Stacey
Speak as Suzy
Suzy: I wouldn't do that right now.
Stacey: Why not?
Suzy: She is always a grouch in the morning. It is better to ask her for something in the afternoon. She is always in a much better mood then.
Stacey: That's good advice. But how do you know that?
Suzy: I know from experience. I've worked here for a long time, and I have noticed that she is much more generous and friendly after lunch. She is just not a morning person, I guess.
Stacey: Okay. I'll wait until after lunch to ask her.
Suzy: That would be better. Let me know how it goes.
