Diálogo realista
Alex: Hi. I’m not completely sure what the next step is, so I wanted to check with you.
Morgan: Absolutely. Give me the key details and I’ll see what we can do.
Alex: That works for me.
Morgan: Okay. The first thing we should look at is the expectation.
Alex: I have that. I’m less certain about the range.
Morgan: Yes. We normally confirm the range and then update the package.
Alex: That makes sense. Can I confirm exactly what happens next?
Morgan: Yes, that’s right. Once the priority is confirmed, there shouldn’t be any other action for you today.
Alex: Could we go over the details for pedir un aumento?
Morgan: The only thing to watch is the project, because that can affect the timing.
Alex: Okay. I brought the compensation too, because I wasn’t sure whether it was required.
Morgan: That would be useful. You may not need it now, but it can save time later.
Alex: Would it be possible to…?
Morgan: No problem. I’ll explain the deadline in plain terms and then you can tell me if anything is unclear.
Alex: Thanks. The vocabulary is actually easier when I can connect it to the situation.
Morgan: Right. In a real conversation, catching the feedback and the next action is usually enough.
Alex: I’m here because I need help with pedir un aumento.
Morgan: If anything changes, contact us and mention the role. That will help us find your details quickly.
Alex: Before I go, can I confirm the update as well?
Morgan: That’s correct. The update stays exactly as discussed.
Alex: Excellent. I’ll follow those steps and get back in touch if anything changes.
Morgan: You’re welcome. Have a good day.
