经理和他的秘书
鸭绒25(译)
2024年1月4日
一家小企业的经理和他的秘书决定去秘书家做一些“运动”。完事后,他俩都睡着了。
当经理醒来时,一看手表,发现已经是晚上8点多了。
他一边惊慌失措地从床上跳起来,一边心里盘算着该如何跟妻子解释。他告诉秘书,赶紧把他的鞋子拿到院子里,在草地上好好磨擦一下。然后,他穿好衣服,回家。
当经理到家打开房门时,他的妻子正怒气冲冲地站在门廊里,问他到底去哪里了,直到晚上8点半才回来?
经理平静地回答说,他和他的秘书有外遇。今天下午去了她家,并在那里睡过头了。
他的妻子非常仔细地上下打量了他一番。
当她看到他鞋子的状态时,她喊道:“你这个骗子。你去钓鱼了!”
原文: Manager and His Secretary
The manager of a small business and his secretary decided to go over to her place for some “gymnastics”。Afterwards,they both fall asleep。
When the manager wakes up and looks at his watch,he discovers that it is after 8 o'clock in the evening。
He jumps up in a panic wondering what he's going to say to his wife。He tells the secretary to quickly take his shoes out into the yard and rub them around in the grass。Then he finishes dressing and goes home。
When the man opens the door to the house,his wife is standing in the doorway fuming and asks him where the hell he's been until 8:30 in the evening?
The man calmly replies that he and his secretary are having an affair and that they had fallen asleep after going to her place this afternoon。
His wife looked at him very carefully and when she saw the state of his shoes,she exclaimed:“You liar,you've been FISHING!”
