Point out

HOW TO USE

Speak as Pete
Speak as Jacob
Pete: How is your first day of work going?

Jacob: Pretty well.

Pete: Great. Do you have any questions?

Jacob: Yeah. Could you tell me a little about our boss? It's hard for me to tell what kind of person he is.

Pete: Our boss is pretty good. I like his management style, and he is quite intelligent. The only thing that I don't like about him is that he often points out a person's mistake in front of other people. It has happened to me a few times, and it is kind of embarrassing.

Jacob: I see. My previous boss also did that, and I hated it.

Pete: I don't think our boss knows how people feel about it. He thinks he is just helping. Anyway, I didn't mean to scare you. Really, our boss is not that bad. You don't have anything to worry about.

Jacob: That's great to hear. I have one more question for you. Do you think you could show me around the office and point out all the important things?

Pete: Absolutely. I'll show you around. Follow me.
