Karen , do you have a minute ? I'd like to ask you about something .   Sure . What is it ?   I think you can give me some advice.You have worked here longer , and I just want to know what you think .   I'm glad to help you . But what is it you want to ask about ?   I am worried about the meeting this morning .   Why ? I think the meeting went well .   Really ?   Yes . But what are you worried about ?   I'm afraid I was too rude .   Rude ? You weren't rude at all , Annie . Why do you think you were rude ?   Well , I maybe talked to Mr . Drummond too directly . I thought I maybe said too much . I don't want him to be angry .   I understand . But really you weren't rude at all.You said what you thought . I think he appreciates that .   Really ?   Yes .   But I am new here , and I'm not sure he is used to that .   You mean because you are a woman ?   Yes . And he is the president of the company .   Listen , Annie . You shouldn't worry about Mr . Drummond.He is a very good man to work for . He is not sexist at all.He appreciates people for their ideas.And he is willing to take suggestions from men or women .
