Erin:
hi, Amy, come in.
what can I do for you?
Amy:
I heard a rumor that Mike is on England right now trying to sell the company.
I need to know what kind of impact this might have on my career.
Erin:
Hang on a minute, Amy.
I know there are a lot of rumors going around.
I think it's premature to start worrying.
Amy:
Why can't management let us know what's going on?
while I'm glad that some thing may change around here, it bothers me that i'm hearing so manyrumors.
Erin:
I think you're getting too worked up about this.
Management will talk to the staff directly when there's something tangibleto discuss.
Although it's nice to let everyone know what's happening. We can't make any announcements before all the facts are in.
Amy:
So, they are going to sell the company!
Is everyone going to be when Mike gets back from England?
Erin:
Don't jump to conclusions, Amy.
Wait to hear what Mike has to say before you start saying that people might be fired.
Amy:
I guess that's reasonable.
but I don't understand why you can't just tell me now whether or not we're being sold.
