Are you feeling tired from working all day? So am I! But before I fall to sleep, let me tell you that this episode is about being tired and energetic. Okay, now let me sleep… Tags: Business, Daily Life Audio Index: Slow dialogue: 1:15 Explanations: 2:54 Fast dialogue: 14:16 Carmen: Wake up! You’re supposed to be working. Elias: Shhh, I’m trying to sleep. The boss is out of the office today, so I consider it a holiday. Today, I can be a little out of it if I want to be. Carmen: Out of it? You’re sleeping on the job – literally! Elias: So what? Aren’t you feeling a little tired on a Monday morning? Carmen: I admit I’m a little sluggish, but that’s no reason to fall down on the job. We both have work to get done and I’m doing it. Elias: What’s wrong with you? Why are you so hyper? I’m as hard working as the next guy, but I’m not going to jump through hoops when the boss is away. Carmen: You, hard working? Don’t make me laugh! You’d better get back to work or when the boss gets back, he’ll call you a slacker again. Elias: Okay, I’m learning by your example. I’m now as energetic and productive as you are. Carmen: Yeah? Doing what? Elias: Telling my co-worker she’s a pain in the neck! Script by Dr. Lucy Tse
