Subject: Tread lightly gen. Уважаемые коллеги,Что в данном контексте значит Tread lightly?
Это какая-то игра слов или что? Не понимаю эту фразу:
Tread lightly, over there Cheng me boy, tread lightly Это скрипт к видео для этического тренинга.
Если нужно, могу выложить и продолжение истории. Большое спасибо. Tom
Great trip. What was your favorite part?
Cheng
All of it.
Tom
Gee Cheng, I wish I was rich like you so I could travel all over the world.
Cheng
Hey man, it took a lot of frequent flier miles to pull that trip off. Not to mention getting a visa approved.
I didn’t think I had to get one, being a US citizen and all. I thought with all the trade we do with China…
Tom
I guess you didn’t you think about us poor stiffs back here at work at all?
Cheng
Sure, like when I was walking the Great Wall at Badaling, or when I was in the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven …
all I could possibly think about was my wonderful co-workers back at the Pressure Fab Company.
Tom
Okay.
Cheng
You what was kinda cool though – seeing one of Pressure Fab bulkheads on an airplane
You, know, it does make you proud. It’s not like we’re a supplier for toasters, you know what I mean?
Tom
Yeah, it would be sort of hard flying to China on a toaster. Who’s that?
Cheng
That … is Yu Chenglong. He is revered in China’s history. One of the most honest men ever to walk the planet.
He banished bribery, fed starving farmers while he was governor-general of the Ming dynasty.
I bought an e-book on him after the exhibits and put the picture at the end of my slide show. So how’s the new boss?
Tom
Blake? I don’t know; he’s been pretty quiet. Seems to be concentrating on getting a handle on the supply chain.
One of my friends who worked with him at his last gig said he could be a real hothead.
Cheng
One guy’s opinion.
Tom
Tread lightly, over there Cheng me boy, tread lightly!
Miles
Hey Carlos. Cool yer heels a second!
Carlos
Wuzzup?
Miles
We have some fasteners with some surface defects.
