Mary

Hi Peter!

Peter

Hi Mary.

Mary

How's your first week of work going?

Peter

It's going really well.

I love the job and the team.

Mary

That's great!

Are you busy?

I want to discuss the office rules with you.

Peter

Did I do something wrong?

Mary

No, no! It's your first week.

I need to discuss the rules with all new employees.

Peter

Oh, okay!

---

Mary

Let's first talk about the working hours.

Employees must arrive at work by 9 a.m.

And they cannot leave work before 6 p.m.

Peter

What if I need to leave earlier?

Mary

If you need to leave before 6, you should tell me first.

Peter

I understand.

---

Mary

If you feel sick, you should apply for sick leave.

You can apply on our company's app.

And please tell me if you cannot come to work.

Peter

Sure. No problem.

---

Mary

Now let's talk about the dress code.

You don't need to wear a suit and tie.

Peter

Yeah… it's pretty formal.

Mary

The office dress code is business casual.

So you can wear a dress shirt and dress shoes.

Peter

Okay. Tomorrow I will wear something less formal.

Mary

But don't wear sneakers or jeans.

They're not allowed.

---

Mary

Well, those are the rules.

Do you have any questions?

Peter

Not at the moment.

Mary

If you do, don't be afraid to ask.

Peter

Sure thing.

Thank you for explaining the rules to me.

Mary

Of course!
