— Betty, fancy seeing you here. I didn't know you rode the subway.
— I don't usually. It's just that I'm fed up with driving and paying so much for gas, and the buses are crowded and unreliable. So I thought I'd give this a try.

And going home, the 52nd Street stop is only two blocks from my apartment. When I was driving, I wasn't getting nearly as much exercise.

— Sure you are. And you're going to do just great! After all, Ms. Robertson wouldn't have chosen you if she didn't think you were well-qualified. You've earned your new position, so relax. I'm proud of you!
