　　M：So.Linzy,do you like to text message on your cell phone?

　　in a hurry

　　M：Well.ever since Sandra left the department，[13] I feel like I've been targeted to do all her work as well as mine.I'm expected to attend too many meetings and I seem to be spending a lot of my time doing unnecessary paper work.

　　W：I'm sorry to hear that.

　　M：And，on top of that，I'd specifically asked if I could leave early last Friday as I done a lot of overtime during the week.But that afternoon， even though I’d finished my assigned work，I was told to help other colleagues finish their work，too.

　　W：[14]But surely that’s a positive sign showing that Mr.Bond has a lot of trust in you.
