　　Good morning, Mr. Johnson, how can I help you?

　　well, I’d like to talk to you about Team Barn, the department manager.

　　What seems to be the problem?

　　Well, ever since Saudra left the department, I felt like I’ve been targeted to do all her work, as well as mine. I’m expected to attend many meetings. And I seem to be spending a lot of time doing unnecessary paperwork.

　　I’m sorry to hear that.

　　And on top of that, I’ve specifically asked if I could leave early last Friday, even though as I’ve finished my assignment, I was told to help. But surely, that’s a positive sign showing that Mr. Barn has a lot of trust in you.

　　Yeah, but other colleague gets leave early and they don’t have such a lot of work to do.

　　So you feel he’s making unrealistic demands on you?

　　Yes, absolutely.

　　Have you approached Mr. Barn about this particular problem?

　　I tried, but it seems he just has no time for me.

　　Well, at this stage, it would be better to approach him directly. If nothing else show you can solve the problem yourself before you take it further, makes it clear you’re not just a complainer. Why don’t you send him an email, requesting a meeting with him in private.

　　Hmm, I feel a bit worry about his reaction. But, anyway I’ll send him an email requesting a meeting, and see what happens though, thanks for your advice.

　　Good luck, let us know the outcome.
