Conversation #1

Woman: Roger, I want to talk to you about the company dress policy.

Man: Sure, it there a problem with how I dress? I do my best to look professional.

Woman: Well, you look nice. It's just that you don't wear a suit.

Man: I know, but it's hard to be productive in a suit, and it is very unlikely that I see any clients.

Woman: I know, but it is important that all employees follow the same policy.

Man: OK, I will start wearing a suit from tomorrow onward.

Woman: Great, and be sure to wear nice dress shoes, too.

Conversation #2

Woman: This accident is very strange.

Man: Yeah, it's weird that no one saw the accident.

Woman: And it's odd that both drivers fled the scene.

Man: Maybe both had a criminal record and were afraid of going to jail.

Woman: Maybe that is the case. Regardless, it is doubtful that we will find whoever did this.

Man: I think you may be wrong about that.

Conversation #3

Woman: How is your dinner?

Man: I can't eat it. I'm not hungry.

Woman: What? You have to eat. The doctor said that it's vital that you eat every meal.

Man: I would if I could. I'm just not hungry.

Woman: Well, it is important that you try harder.

Man: Well, it would help if the food actually tasted good.

Woman: I'm sorry about that. I'll try to bring you a homemade meal tomorrow.

Man: Thanks. I appreciate that. But it's unlikely that they would allow it.

Woman: Well, it doesn't hurt to ask.

Conversation #4

Man: So, how is life since you quit your job?

Woman: Good! It's nice that I get to work from home now.

Man: Yeah, I would think so. It's awesome that you get to set your own hours and be your own boss.

Woman: Yeah, that is good, but I miss the security of my old job.

Man: Still, it's sad that more people don't get to work that way.

Woman: True, but it's highly likely that more people will get the chance in the future.

Man: I hope so.
