Ed : I don’t slurp my coffee. And plus, how can you hear it when you’re shouting into your phone all the time?
Mary :You ’ve got to be kidding me! You’re complaining about me talking on the phone when you go out for a cigarette break ten times a day to shoot the breeze?
Ed : Look, we have a lot of accumulated anger from working in these conditions, and it’s probably okay to let off steam once in a while . But, it’s probably not a good idea to keep it up I’m willing to forgive and forget and if you are.
