English Original
One morning, my manager asked me to deliver a heavy water feature.
He said, "This water feature is very heavy. Be careful. I'll find a pair of boots for you. What size do you wear?"
"Size six."
"Okay! Let me go and look."
A few minutes later, he brought a pair of boots to me and said, "I couldn't find a size six, but I found a size nine. They're a little big for you. You can put some tissue paper inside."
"Don't worry!" I took them, put them on, and walked away.
A few hours later, I returned from the delivery and walked into our garden centre with heavy steps.
Everyone laughed at me: "You look like a robot!"
I am 165 cm tall and normally wear size 6 shoes. That day, I was still the same height, but I was wearing size 9 heavy-duty boots. So, I did look like a robot. It's true.
A few months later, our garden centre issued every staff member a new pair of boots in the right size.
中文翻译
一天早上，经理让我去送一个很重的装饰水景。
他说：“这个水景很重，你要小心点。我给你找双靴子。你穿多大码？”
“六码。”
“好的！我去找找。”
几分钟后，他拿了一双靴子过来，说：“我没找到六码的，找到了九码的。对你来说有点大，你可以在里面塞点纸巾。”
“没关系！”我接过靴子穿上，然后走开了。
几小时后，我送完货回来，迈着沉重的步子走进我们的园艺中心。
大家都笑话我：“你看起来像个机器人！”
我身高165厘米，通常穿六码的鞋。那天，我的身高没变，但穿上了九码的重型工作靴。所以，我看起来确实像个机器人。这是真的。
几个月后，我们的园艺中心给每位员工发放了一双合码的新靴子。
