We are promoting Abir to director of the division. You know that you are invaluable in the work you do. We cannot affort to lose you in the administrative matters that Abir will be performing. I hope that you will give Abir your full support”. Thank you. Samira response, “ Oh if you had offered to me, I would have declined. I don’t want administrative work”.
