Spanish Conversation
Andrea: Jason, ¿ya viste el correo de Marta?
Andrea: Jason, did you see Marta's email?
Jason: No. ¿Qué pasó?
Jason: No. What happened?
Andrea: Cambiaron la reunión de las tres a las dos y media.
Andrea: They moved the meeting from three to two thirty.
Jason: ¿En serio? Todavía no termino el reporte.
Jason: Seriously? I still haven't finished the report.
Andrea: Yo tampoco he terminado mis diapositivas.
Andrea: I haven't finished my slides either.
Jason: Genial.
Jason: Great.
Andrea: Tranquilo. Solo adelantaron media hora.
Andrea: Relax. They only moved it up half an hour.
Jason: Media hora que necesitaba.
Jason: Half an hour I needed.
Andrea: ¿Qué te falta?
Andrea: What do you still need to do?
Jason: Revisar las cifras de la última semana. El archivo que tengo no coincide con el tablero.
Jason: Check the numbers from the last week. The file I have doesn't match the dashboard.
Andrea: Yo descargué los datos esta mañana.
Andrea: I downloaded the data this morning.
Jason: ¿Me los puedes mandar?
Jason: Can you send it to me?
Andrea: Sí. Dame un segundo.
Andrea: Yes. Give me a second.
Jason: Gracias.
Jason: Thanks.
Andrea: Ya.
Andrea: Sent.
Jason: A ver... sí, estos son distintos.
Jason: Let's see... yeah, these are different.
Andrea: Creo que actualizaron dos ventas que estaban pendientes.
Andrea: I think they updated two sales that were still pending.
Jason: Eso explica la diferencia.
Jason: That explains the difference.
Andrea: ¿Quieres que revise el total cuando lo cambies?
Andrea: Do you want me to check the total after you change it?
Jason: Sí, por favor. Ya llevo tanto tiempo viendo estos números que no confío en mis ojos.
Jason: Yes, please. I've been staring at these numbers so long I don't trust my eyes anymore.
Andrea: Te entiendo.
Andrea: I know the feeling.
Jason: ¿Tú necesitas algo para tu parte?
Jason: Do you need anything for your part?
Andrea: Las cifras finales, justamente.
Andrea: The final numbers, actually.
Jason: Entonces te mando el reporte en cuanto termine.
Jason: Then I'll send you the report as soon as I'm done.
Andrea: Perfecto. Yo mientras cierro la parte de la campaña.
Andrea: Perfect. In the meantime, I'll finish the campaign section.
Jason: ¿La reunión sigue en la sala grande?
Jason: Is the meeting still in the big conference room?
Andrea: Sí. Eso no cambió.
Andrea: Yes. That didn't change.
Jason: Menos mal.
Jason: Thank goodness.
Andrea: Mira el lado bueno: si terminamos antes, salimos antes.
Andrea: Look on the bright side: if we finish earlier, we leave earlier.
Jason: Esa teoría me gusta.
Jason: I like that theory.
Andrea: Entonces deja de quejarte y termina el reporte.
Andrea: Then stop complaining and finish the report.
Jason: Sí, jefa.
Jason: Yes, boss.
Andrea: No te acostumbres.
Andrea: Don't get used to it.
