A worker who was being paid by the week approached his employer and held up his last paycheck. This is two hundred dollars less than we agreed on, he said. I know, the employer said. But last week I overpaid you two hundred dollars, and you never complained.
Well, I don't mind an occasional mistake, the worker answered, but when it gets to be a habit, I feel I have to call it to your attention.
一个拿周薪的工人找到雇主，拿出上周的工资单，“比我们商量好的少了200美元，”他说。“我知道，”雇主说，“但上星期我们多付了你200美元，也没听你抱怨。”
“好了，我并不介意偶尔犯错误，”工人回答，“但如果成了习惯，我觉得必须提起你的注意。”
