Speaking exercise

the end of the year is the busy season for me, I can’t control myself. Honestly, there have a little bit problems. My suppliers told me that they worry the lead time will be late, they couldn’t deliver the goods to me on time. Sometimes we can’t have a good communication with employees, because they always focus on the price, they always give us a lot of excuse, “why the materials come too late, why you always ask me to do a lot of things”

Revised

the end of the year is the busiest period for me, I can’t relax myself. Honestly, there are some small problems. My suppliers told me that they worry the lead time / ETA of the the shipment will be late, they might not deliver the goods to me on time. Sometimes we can’t have a good communication with employees, because they always focus on the money, they always give us a lot of excuses, “why are materials late, why do you always ask me to do a lot of things”
