Instead of asking her directly, "Excuse me, Emily, can you tell me how much experience you have in our industry and let's go from there," they used BS as a way to keep Emily and them apart rather than bring them together.
En lugar de preguntarle directamente, “Emily, ¿podrías hablarme de tu experiencia en esta industria y partimos por ahí?” Usaron el LE como forma de mantener a Emily y a ellos separados, en lugar de unificarse.
