美國(guó)流行笑話：The Perplexed Clerk 困惑的店員

120　The Perplexed Clerk 困惑的店員

Heavily laden with groceries, my wife asked a young clerk at the grocery store to accompany her to her car. Arriving there, she opened the doors and, without thinking, sat down in the back seat to check off her list of errands. A moment later the perplexed clerk walked around the car to my wife. “Lady,” he said firmly. “I don't mind helping you load your groceries, but I really got to draw the line at driving you home.”

我太太買(mǎi)了一大堆雜貨，就請(qǐng)雜貨鋪的年輕店員幫她把東西送到她車(chē)上。到了那里，她打開(kāi)車(chē)門(mén)，便不假思索地坐到后排座位上，查看她的辦事清單。過(guò)了一會(huì)兒，那個(gè)困惑的店員從車(chē)后面繞過(guò)來(lái)，語(yǔ)氣堅(jiān)定地對(duì)我太太說(shuō)：“我很樂(lè)意幫你裝車(chē)，但是我實(shí)在是不能把你送回家。”
