Read the following text and decide what the relationship is between Jim and Jen

Hi Jim,
I saw your email this morning, got distracted and forgot to reply; sorry about that. I was in a rush to get the kids to school, because I had a conference call scheduled for half past eight. I walked into the office out of breath at quarter past nine. Needless to say I was reprimanded by Markus and spent the rest of the day trying to convince him not to fire me; as it is, he’s upset with my overall performance lately. What can I say, I guess this isn’t my week.
I’m rambling, sorry about that, I guess I’m compensating for not being able to talk to you about my disastrous day at work. Anyway, the kids and I picked up some groceries at the store, had dinner, watched some TV and they’re in bed now.
I’m so happy you enjoyed the playlist I gave you, if I have time I’ll send you some recommended links for the flight back. It sounds like you’re disappointed with the hotel. That’s a shame, you deserve better. When they drag you abroad for these lectures, they should at least make sure you’re comfortable. In any case, I hope you get a chance to see the sites in the limited free time you have there and of course I’m sure you’ll do a great job on Tuesday.
I miss you and love you,
Jen

I have to say

it's obvious

I'm lying

I'm telling the truth

What word in the text indicates that Jen thinks that Jim doesn't enjoy going on business trips?

I’m so happy you enjoyed the playlist I gave you, if I have time I’ll send you some recommended links for the flight back. It sounds like you’re disappointed with the hotel. That’s a shame, you deserve better. When they drag you abroad for these lectures, they should at least make sure you’re comfortable.
