The Plumber


Walter: 안녕 Bill! 잘 지내?

Walter: Hey Bill! How's it going?
Bill: 어, 그냥 그래. 며칠 전에 배관 고치는데 거금 들였어!

Bill: Oh, so-so. Just had to pay the plumber a fortune!
Walter: 진짜? 맞아 배관 고치는 게 비싸지.

Walter: Really? Yes they can be expensive.
Bill: 내가 배관공을 해야 돼. 그러면 돈도 많이 벌고 대학교도 안 가도 될텐데.

Bill: I should become a plumber. Then I would earn a lot of money and no need to go to university.
Walter: 우리 삼촌이 배관공이셨는데 배관공 일이 많이 힘들대.

Walter: My uncle was a plumber and he said it's tough work.
Bill: 그래?

Bill: Is it?
Walter: 응, 허리나 무릎 아픈 것도 흔하대.

Walter: Yes, back pain and knee problems are very common.
Bill: 그렇구나. 그래서 삼촌이 퇴직하신거야?

Bill: I see. Is that why he retired?
Walter: 응, 그래서. 60세도 안 되셔서 퇴직하셨어.

Walter: Yes, for that reason. He wasn't even 60 when he retired.
