雙語故事:Equal opportunity(平等機會)

【英文原文】


Equal-opportunity——平等機會

One Friday everyone in our office was in high spirits, and Marshall, a sales rep, was making the rounds, joking and teasing us all. When he stopped in front of a new employee's desk, she braced herself. "I hoped I might be spared," she said.

"Oh, you can't escape Marshall," our boss cautioned her. "He's an equal-opportunity annoyer."

【中文譯文】
