Linda Brown works for a big company. Her job is very important, so she has to work a lot-often 60 or

Linda. You should go home."
     "That is impossible," Linda said. "I have to finish this report. I have to write three letters. An I have to..."
     "OK, OK, I understand. Maybe you should put a bed in your office," Sally said." Then you can live here and work at any time you like."
     "That's a good idea!" Linda said.
     "It's a joke, Linda," Sally said."You really need a vacation. You know, health is much more important than
work."
