Dear native English speakers,
which is appropriate in the blank, "a" or "the"? Does only "the" sound right?
Vice President : I don't understand why nobody listens to my ideas!
Secretary : I'm sorry, sir.
VP : I am vice president! My ideas and opinions should be listened to!
S : I'm very sorry, sir.
VP : Naomi, you are always saying that you are sorry. A good secretary doesn't say sorry all the time. Just go and leave me alone.
S : I'm sor...Yes, sir.
Thanks in advance.
