The Plumber
和哉: やあ、雄介! 調子はどうだい?Kazuya: Hey Yusuke! How's it going?
雄介: ああ、まあまあだよ。この前、配管工に大金を払わなきゃいけなかったんだ!Yusuke: Oh, so-so. Just had to pay the plumber a fortune!
和哉: 本当? ああ、あれは高くつくことがあるよね。 Kazuya: Really? Yes they can be expensive.
雄介: 自分で配管工になったほうがよさそうだよ。そうすれば、お金もたくさん稼げるし、大学に行かなくていいし。Yusuke: I should become a plumber. Then I would earn a lot of money and no need to go to university.
和哉: 僕の叔父さんが配管工で、大変な仕事だって言ってたよ。Kazuya: My uncle was a plumber and he said it's tough work.
雄介: そうなの?Yusuke: Is it?
和哉: うん、腰や膝を痛めることはしょっちゅうらしいよ。Kazuya: Yes, back pain and knee problems are very common.
雄介: なるほどね。それで引退されたのかい?Yusuke: I see. Is that why he retired?
和哉: うん、それが理由だったんだ。辞めた時、まだ60歳にもなってなかったよ。Kazuya: Yes, for that reason. He wasn't even 60 when he retired.
