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
