Tarefa Extra ✍️

Translate and Interpret the Text

Read the dialogue below about an employee negotiating flexible work hours with their manager. Pay attention to the persuasive and negotiation phrases used.

Employee (Ana): Hi, Mark. Do you have a minute? I'd like to propose a change to my work schedule.
Manager (Mark): Of course, Ana. What's on your mind?

Ana: Well, I've been thinking about productivity. I believe I could be more focused and efficient if I had more flexibility. I'd like to suggest working from home two days a week.
Mark: I understand your point, but the company policy requires everyone to be in the office.

Ana: I'm aware of the policy. However, wouldn't you agree that results are more important than physical presence? My performance has been consistently high. The evidence suggests my productivity would actually increase.
Mark: I appreciate your confidence, but I'm concerned about team collaboration.

Ana: That's a reasonable concern. What if we try a one-month trial period? If my productivity or team collaboration drops, we can go back to the old schedule. It seems like a win-win situation. We can test the benefits without any long-term commitment.
Mark: A trial period... that's an interesting idea. I'm willing to consider it. Let's talk it over again tomorrow after I review the possibilities.
Ana: Thank you, Mark. I'm confident it will work out for everyone.
