B: actually I do. She is really understanding and reasonable most of the time. There was only one time I didn’t really agree with her.
A: when was that?
B: once she fired one of my co-workers for drinking on the job. I felt bad for him, because it is so hard to find a job these days, and he has a family to support.
A: well, he shouldn’t have been drinking on duty. It’s your boss’ responsibility to make sure employees are safe, and also doing their jobs.
B: you are right. She was being a good boss when she fired him, but I just felt sorry for him, that’s all.
A: did this incident with your co-worker affect your relationship with your boss?
