documents: #Person1#: did you get my email?
  #Person2#: I certainly did. Do you want to come in and give me some feedback about your weekend?
  #Person1#: sure.
  #Person2#: how did the business trip go?
  #Person1#: well, to be honest, nothing is more stressful than going on a business trip with our boss.
  #Person2#: I understand. The last time I went on a business trip with the boss, I didn't even have enough to eat!
  #Person1#: I also think the company is pretty cheap with travel expenses. I spent half of the weekend on a train! Surely they could have afforded to buy a few plane tickets!
  #Person2#: our company is quite conscious of the environmental problems that frequent flying causes.
  #Person1#: I see. Well, then perhaps they could give me a few days off after a business trip. It was really tiring for me.
  #Person2#: I can ask the boss about giving you the day off today.
  #Person1#: thank you. I can't imagine getting much done today. I'm just too exhausted!
  #Person2#: no problem. Did you bring any gifts back for your department?
  #Person1#: no, should I have?
