- GOOD MORNING, JOHN.
HOW ARE YOU?

- GOOD, SWEET THING.

A LOT BETTER NOW
THAT YOU'RE HERE.

- HEY, JOHN,
I WANTED TO TALK TO YOU.

I HAD TO DELETE THOSE EMAILS.

IT'S NOT APPROPRIATE

FOR YOU TO BE SENDING ME
MESSAGES LIKE THAT,

USING SUCH VULGAR LANGUAGE.

- OH, COME ON, BABY.

JUST TRYING TO MAKE YOU SMILE,
YOU KNOW,

HELP YOU HAVE A BETTER DAY.

- WELL, IF THE MESSAGES
AREN'T WORK RELATED,

I'D APPRECIATE IT
IF YOU STOPPED EMAILING ME.

- OKAY, FINE...
SORRY.

JUST TRYING TO HAVE
A LITTLE FUN.

- GOOD MORNING, SARAH.
HOW ARE YOU?

I'M GOOD AS WELL,
THANK YOU FOR ASKING.

I JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW

THAT I FINISHED THE REST
OF THAT PAPERWORK LAST NIGHT,

IN CASE YOU WANTED
TO REVIEW IT ANY TIME TODAY.

OKAY, SARAH, THANK YOU TOO.

- YO, JOHN, WHAT'S GOOD, BOY?

- NOT MUCH, MAN.
WHAT'S GOING ON WITH YOU?

- NOTHING, I'M JUST TIRED
AS ANYTHING.

THANKFULLY,
IT'S THE 9:15 COFFEE BREAK.

HEY, BABY!

- WHATEVER.

- HEY, THE BOSS WAS GOING
TO MAKE HER ROUNDS,

BUT SHE SENT ME OUT INSTEAD.

SHE WANTED TO KNOW
IF YOU'RE MAKING ANY PROGRESS

ON THAT NEW PROPOSAL.

- YEAH, IT'S ALL GOOD.

I'M NOT TRYING TO BOIL THE OCEAN
ON THIS ONE,

JUST NEED TO COMPONENTISE
THE DELIVERABLES,

GET A BUY-IN ON THE BUSINESS
MODEL,

CIRCLE BACK AROUND TO YOU...
CLOSE THE LOOPS.

- WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?

- TAKING CARE OF IT.

- ALRIGHT, SO HAVE
YOU BRAINSTORMED ANY IDEAS?

- NO, IT'S ALL GOOD.

- SO WHAT AM I SUPPOSED
TO TELL THE BOSS?

- TELL HER B-TURF'S TAKING CARE
OF THINGS, JER.

IT'S NO BIG DEAL.

- ALRIGHT, YOU REALIZE
I AM YOUR SUPERIOR?

- WELL AWARE, BOSS MAN.

IT'S NO BIG DEAL.

JEEZ, MY FRIENDS
DON'T RIDE ME LIKE THIS.

- WELL, THAT'S BECAUSE
WE AREN'T YOUR FRIENDS.

SEE, WE'RE YOUR WORK ASSOCIATES.

SO YOU'D BETTER
CLEAN UP THE TALK

BEFORE IT CARRIES OVER INTO
A CONVERSATION WITH A CLIENT

AND YOU GET IN TROUBLE.

- WHATEVER, DUDE.

- DUDE, YOU'RE TOTALLY GOING
TO GET IN TROUBLE.

- RELAX, MAN.
I HAVE THE ENTIRE PROJECT DONE.

- THEN WHAT GIVES?

- I'M NOT LOOKING FOR THEM
TO GIVE ME ANY MORE WORK,

SO I'M HANDING THIS THING
IN ALAP.

- ALAP?

- AS LATE AS POSSIBLE.

THEY GET WHAT THEY WANT,
I CHILL TILL THE VERY END.

EVERYONE WINS.

- THAT'S GENIUS.

- YOU GOT THAT RIGHT.

- IN THE OPENING DIALOGUE
BETWEEN JOHN AND REGINA,

WHAT SPECIFIC ADVICE WOULD
YOU GIVE JOHN? WHY?

WHAT ADVICE WOULD
YOU GIVE REGINA? WHY?

DID REGINA APPROPRIATELY
HANDLE HER TELEPHONE CALL?

PLEASE EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWER.

JOHN AND BRIAN APPROPRIATE?

PROVIDE SPECIFIC EXAMPLES.

COULD IMPROVE HIS LANGUAGE
