开始尊重我
I think he... he's beginning to respect me.Swimming with Sharks · 1994 — 第 11 / 16 章 · 5'24" · B2
盖伊拿着新到手的传呼机,以为上司开始尊重自己,有人却泼冷水:He's just got you on a shorter leash(他只是把你管得更紧)。对方还提醒,这位老板 plays a zero-sum game(玩的是零和博弈),Nobody wins unless somebody loses(有人赢就必有人输)。想听懂职场里这种拐着弯的警告,这几句很典型。
盖伊拿着新传呼机,以为上司开始尊重自己,对方一句 He's just got you on a shorter leash(他只是把你管得更紧)把幻想戳破。接着是一场拉扯:有人要盖伊取消和斯特拉的会面、跟巴迪走,还说自己 know the drill(清楚这套流程)——the politicking, the compromises(搞政治、互相妥协),甚至为了拍马屁把咖啡洒自己身上。旁人提醒,这位老板 plays a zero-sum game(玩的是零和博弈),Nobody wins unless somebody loses(有人赢就必有人输),跟他绑在一起迟早吃亏。on a short leash 是被管得很紧、没有自由;zero-sum game 是零和博弈,一方所得必是另一方所失;know the drill 是清楚流程、知道该怎么办。谈判、站队、听警告,这些话都用得上。

There's no way that Rogaine's gonna help you out of this one, my friend, I'm tellin' you.我没意见、随你便
盖伊给巴迪试造型,巴迪不满意,让他换回之前那套辣酱造型,还丢下一句随你的便,反正我不介意,态度满不在乎。
You want to go back to the hot sauce, that's fine by me.多年的霉运
7 years of bad luck.真他妈绝
That's fuckin' brilliant.You cannot get into bed with him without getting fucked.跟他上床,你不可能不被操。 把合作说成陷阱:一旦绑定就没有全身而退,粗话让警告更冷。
He's just got you on a shorter leash, that's all.他只是把绳子给你收短了,仅此而已。 用「牵狗绳」比喻控制:所谓被器重,不过是绳子的长度变了。一句就拆穿职场里的恩宠幻觉。
Loss of the things that matter most.失去那些最重要的事。 把痛苦追到根上:真正折磨人的,不是失去本身,而是失去的那样东西恰好最重要。
As long as I don't lose you.只要别失去你。 在满场算计和背叛里,这句把条件从句留给唯一在意的人。它不喊口号,只用最轻的语气说出最重的在乎。
字面是绳牵得更短,实际指被人管得很紧、没有自由。剧中盖伊拿到传呼机以为被尊重,对方就用这句话点破:这不是信任,是拴得更牢。
说 zero-sum game。它的意思是一方所得必是另一方所失,没有双赢。剧中用来形容巴迪的行事方式,还配了一句 Nobody wins unless somebody loses。
意思是清楚这套流程、知道该怎么办,常用在重复做过的场合。剧中有人说 I know the drill,表示他对公司里的政治和妥协早就门清。
不是。fine by me 是我没意见、随你便的意思,语气偏无所谓。剧中有人想让对方换回旧造型,说的是 fine by me,等于你爱怎样就怎样。
说 As long as I don't lose you。剧中在一番算计和警告之后,用这句话把话题拉回关系本身,语气一下子软下来。
