A: I can't say anything./ B: No! Come on, spill the tea!/ A: I promised I wouldn't say anything./ B: Ok, fine!
A: I can't believe we hit our sales target for the quarter!/ B: That's fantastic news!
A: So, raise your glasses, everyone! To a great year ahead!/ B: To a great year ahead!
A: Let's go for a hike this weekend./ B: It's not my cup of tea./ A: What do you want to do?/ B: Let's go to the beach.
​A: Shoot! We're in hot water!/ B: Why? What's wrong?/ A: I thought our flight was 10 PM, but it was 10 AM!/B: What are we gonna do?
​A: I made a big mistake in my presentation./ B: Don't cry over spilled milk./ A: I'm so embarrassed.
B: What's important is you learned from your mistake.
 
A: It's been a few weeks since we made those New Year's resolutions.  How's it going for you?
B: Ugh, not so well. I promised myself to hit the gym regularly, but life keeps getting in the way.
A: Tell me about it! I wanted to read a book a week, but I have barely finished one.
B: It's like we set ourselves up for failure, right?
A: Maybe we need more realistic goals next year.
A: l've noticed you're such a planner, always organized and on top of things.
B: Well, I like to have everything scheduled and sorted.
A: I'm the complete opposite, more of a go-with-the-flow kind of person.
B: You know what? I like that about you.  I feel like I'm too uptight. I want to loosen up sometimes.
A: Frank, did you hear that Suzie doesn't want to go on the company retreat?
B: Yeah, she's always been a bit shy and prefers to keep to herself.
A: I get it, but it's a great opportunity to bond with colleagues.
B: True, but I guess it's just not her thing.
A: Well, we all have different personality traits.  Maybe on day she'll join in.
A: I think Suzie's really introverted and prefers her own space.
B: I think so too. Maybe we shouldn't push her into something that makes her uncomfortable.
A: Exactly, everyone's different, and we should respect that.
B: Maybe we can find a compromise, like a smaller team-building activity.
A: That sounds like a great idea.
A: You know, our friend Josh, he's always so reliable and willing to help others.
B: Absolutely, Josh is one of the most dependable people I know.
A: Sometimes, though, I worry he bends over backward too much for others.
B: I've felt the same way.
A: It's what makes him a great friend, but I wish he would stop overextending himself.
