Good Morning, Miss Mason,
I trust you slept well. I know I did.
Any free time on your hands today or does the schedule only allow for quickies?

Eric entered my office and sat down in his usual spot. I laughed out loud when I read the email, Eric staring at me curiously. I quickly responded before starting my meeting with Eric.

Good morning to you, Mr. Edwards,
I got my beauty sleep. Isn’t that what every woman aims for?
My work schedule is chaotic today. I will have to pull an all-nighter since I had some unscheduled interruptions yesterday.
