Hello, my name is Cindy.

This week, I started working in a new office. It’s very busy and lots of people work here.

Eric works in my department. I like him because he is helpful and kind. Yesterday we went for lunch and he told me some funny stories. He’s so humorous!

Sharon is my boss. I like her because she is outgoing and honest. It’s very easy to talk to her.

Greg works in the finance department. I don’t like him because he is selfish and argumentative. He got angry when I asked him for some help.

Aimee works in the marketing department. She’s talkative, so I like talking to her sometimes. I’m a bit shy though, so I just try to be polite. We go to lunch together sometimes.
