David:Do you get along with your colleagues?
Bill:I get along pretty well with most of them.
David:Most of them? Does that mean that you have a problem getting along with some of them?
Bill:Yes.For example,-it seem-s that I can never understand why Mary hasnt been fired。yet.I dont know how to get along with such a gossip like her.
David:Do you think she should be fired just because of her being a gossip?
Bill:Well,being a gossip is not her only problem.She tries to start problems among other employees by spreading rumors.SheS not trustworthy。at al l!
David:So how do you develop good relationships。in the office?
Bill:Well,I respect the private life of others and do my part.I always try to create a good working environment。.
David:True.Maybe we could remind Mary of that tactfully sometime instead
of speaking ill of her behind her back.
Bill:You are right.
