Discordance about a secretary
A: Hello, Mr. Kramer. Could you spare a minute?
B: That’s about all I can spare, Karen. What do you need?
A: I need to talk to you about that new secretary you’ve hired. I think I’m going to have some problems working with her.
B: She seems to be quite qualified. If it’s a personal problem, I’d prefer it if you would work it out between yourselves.

同事不和
A：您好，克莱默先生。能占您一点时间吗？
B：只能是一点点，凯伦。你有什么事？
A：我想说的是您新录用的秘书。我觉得我和她在工作中会发生些问题。
B：她好像挺称职的嘛。如果是个人问题，我倒希望你们自己解决。
