| Carol and Fred were chatting at work when Carol said that he was being promoted to her secretary. |
|
 | I have the papers for you to sign so you can be promoted to my secretary. | |
|
| ... | |
|
|
|
|
|
| As Fred was thinking about how cool it is going to be to have a promotion, and having (conscientious) thoughts about showing that he could handle this new job. |
|
|
| I'll show her that I'm the best one for this job. | |
|
|
|
|
|
| But, as Carol kept talking it was clear that she felt (condescending) about the whole situation and how she is better than him because he is her secretary. |
|
| I expect you to get everything done on time or I won't pay you as much for those projects because I'm your boss and I decide what you get paid. | |
|
