How Could Anyone Stoop So Low? | 谁能如此卑劣?

English Original

Our restaurant manager was a much beloved, jovial man. However, one topic was strictly off-limits in his presence — his height, or rather, his lack of it.

One day, he stormed in and announced angrily, "Someone just picked my pocket!"

Most of my fellow waitresses and I were speechless, except for one who blurted out, "How could anyone stoop so low?"


中文翻译

我们餐厅的经理是一位深受爱戴、开朗的人。然而,有一个话题在他面前是绝对禁止的——他的身高,或者说,他身高的不足。

一天,他怒气冲冲地闯进来,宣布道:“有人偷了我的钱包!”

我和其他大多数女服务员都哑口无言,只有一位脱口而出:“谁能如此卑劣?”
