💬Trò chuyện

🎬Tuesday afternoon, Sarah is hiding in the breakroom to avoid David.

Jessica

David's still talking. Does he think he's immortal or what?

Sarah

Idk, but this meeting is dragging on forever. I'm totally burnt out.

💡

Jessica uses 'immortal' hyperbolically to complain about David's endless talking and inability to stop a meeting. Sarah responds with the phrasal verb 'dragging on' (continuing for too long) and the idiom 'burnt out' (exhausted from overwork), reflecting their shared workplace stress.
