美國流行笑話：Listen to whom 聽誰講

58　Listen to whom 聽誰講

Our flight was about to take off when the passenger behind me launched into a loud and annoying conference call on his cell phone. “Sally, get the customer lists. Charlie, pull all the data together we have. Bob, can you bring us up to date” and on and on. As the flight attendant began the preflight safety instructions, the executive's voice was drowned out by the PA system. I heard him mutter into the phone, “Hold on a second. Some people just like to hear themselves talk.”

我們的飛機(jī)剛要起飛，坐在我后面的乘客用他的手機(jī)開起了電話會議，聲音又響又煩人。“莎麗，拿來客戶名單。查理，把我們現(xiàn)有的數(shù)據(jù)都調(diào)出來。羅伯特，你講一講最近的情況。”沒完沒了地講。當(dāng)空中小姐開始起飛前的安全講解的時候，這位老板的聲音被廣播聲音壓過了。我聽見他對電話里嘀咕說：“等一會兒。有的人只想讓別人聽他們講。”
