May I ask you a few questions?

May I ask you a few questions?

Of course you may, Frank! I can call you Frank, can't I?

Oh, Frank! I'm sorry, I'm not allowed to tell anything! Nothing, nada, niente!

Yes, but what is the reform about?

Dear Frank, this is exceptionally unpleasant for me.

I would like to tell you about the reform in detail, because it will bring about profound changes in our society!

Yes? And? What does it do?

And please: call me Thomas, will you?

Well, I don't like to cut through my colleagues, haha!

Twelve. There's not that much going on right now.

The reform is a great shot that will change everything!

... if you insist...

Anytime, Frank.

No, there is something else.

All right. Too bad. But thank you, Noller!

I'm doing a survey of people's workload.

How many files do you have?

How much are you working right now?

Do you talk to many colleagues?

... but I see about twelve colleagues a day. Some twice, when you meet at the coffee machine.

As many as possible. I value intensive interaction with my employees.

You have no idea how responsible...

A responsible task, I bet.

Of course you may. I am currently working on an important reform.

Was that all?

And what are you working on specifically?

I'm currently sifting through expert opinions on new glossy films for ID documents, if you want to be really specific.

On average?

What exactly is the reform that you and your colleagues are currently working on?

You can bet your life on it ... But you don't have to, haha!

And what are you working on, if I may ask?

What is the reform about?

No, there's one more thing I'd like to know.

Are you familiar with many files? With how many exactly?

You're working a lot right now, aren't you?

Can you tell me how many colleagues you communicate with per day?
