Your students certainly are an opinionated bunch, aren't they? They always are asking you questions, then doubting your answers!

These students (2 of them) are university level English teachers. They do appreciate my input (or I assume they'd stop paying me) but I feel they sometimes come to me for verification and they don't take too well to me disagreeing.

Thanks for the feedback. As I was writing it here in the forums, I did think there was a possibility of it's use. If she was standing up for a raise she deserved or the boss needed to be reminded, I could see using it. But it seems like something you would use just before the woman asks, when that person says to you, 'I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna ask for a raise.'

Actually, now I think it was more the way my student said it that made me think it was awkward. It may be one of those lines you need to be able to pull off.
