Natural speed, please. Try to pronounce properly and avoid noise in the background.
- Alex, I've given it some thought and it's pretty tempting, but it's not that long since I last had a break. I don't know - I still haven't come to any definite decision.
- It's not so much that as my work situation. Taking another break so soon after my promotion might send out the wrong message to my team, although I think my line manager would understand.
- Well... I guess... I could empty my in-tray in time - my workload's not too heavy just now. It's just that I haven't had much time to get the office organised, and to be honest, one of my colleagues would probably by only too glad to use my absence to further his own position.
Thanks!
