Everyday Dialogues

Asking for a Job Promotion 💰💼

Un detto italiano dice: "Non si può avere la botte piena e la moglie ubriaca", applicandolo al tema di oggi, è molto difficile avere un salario alto e molto tempo libero. Purtroppo spesso è anche difficile avere del tempo libero pur non avendo un salario alto. Ma in genere, se è vero che il tempo è denaro, più ne vendiamo più si guadagna. Quanto vale la nostra libertà?

[前回より]   私は店員から二つのおにぎりとレシートを受け取ると自分のカバンに入れた。店内を見回すと客は私だけのようだ。それから店を出ると男が一人店の前の横に座っていた。


その男は気分が悪そうだ、顔を下に向けている。
そして、静かにゆっくり呼吸をしている。
私はその男が心配になったので、声をかけることにした。


私　「大丈夫ですか？」

男　「、、、、、」

私　「あの〜、だいじょうぶですか？」

男　「うっ、う〜ん。少しお酒を飲みすぎたみたい、気分がわるいけど、だいじょうぶ。あっ、ありがとう。　コンビニにあったレモン缶のお酒を500ml2本飲んだんだ。一気に飲んだから酔いが急に回ったみたいだ。おにいさん、水持っている？」

私　「　あっ、水ですか、これ新しいのがあるから飲んでください、あげます」

男　「お〜、助かるわ〜」

男は私が渡したペットボトルの水をゆっくり飲み始めた。それから、大きく深呼吸をした。

I took the two rice balls and the receipt from the clerk and put them in my bag. I looked around the store and I seemed to be the only customer. Then I left the store and saw a man sitting next to the front of the store.


The man looks sick, his face downcast.
And he is breathing quietly and slowly.
I was worried about him, so I decided to speak to him.


Me - "Are you okay?"

The man "、、、、、"

Me - "Um, are you okay?"

The guy "Ummm. I think I drank a little too much alcohol, I don't feel well, but I'm fine. Oh, thank you.　I drank two 500 ml bottles of lemon canned alcohol that I found at a convenience store. I drank them all at once, so I feel like I'm getting drunk too fast. Do you have any water?

I "Oh, water? I have a new one, please drink it, I'll give it to you.

The guy "Oh, thank you very much.

The man slowly began to drink from the plastic bottle I handed him. Then he took a deep breath.
