Advice for “kid”
A bit of advice for those about to retire. If you are only 65 , never move to a retirement community. Everybody else is in their 70s, 80s,or 90s. so when something has to be moved ,lifted or loaded , they yell, “get the kid.”
忠告“年輕者”
這里想對將要退休者提一點忠告。如果你只有65歲的話，千萬別進退休社區(qū)。因為那里人人都七八十歲或者八九十歲了。每當要搬東西、抬東西或者裝東西時，他們就叫喊“讓小的干吧。”

額外的復印稿
總裁要按計劃在一個重要的會議上發(fā)表演講，所以他要求他的一個雇員約翰為他寫一個簡潔的，大約長20分鐘左右的演講稿。當總裁從這個重大的會議中回來是非常生氣。“誰讓你寫一份長一個小時的講稿？”他問，“一半的聽眾在我講完之前就離開了。”約翰很疑惑。“我些了一份20分鐘的講稿，”他答道，“然后我給你了你要的兩份講稿的復印件。”
