过去几天的时光,BloggerRajesh Setty 和在班加罗尔认识的几个“棒极了”的家伙一起度过。其中一个无与伦比的家伙叫Jnan Dash,Jnan 不失幽默地分享了大把的关于技术趋势的行家观点,其中一个关于“权利”的故事,实在是可爱极了。
现本人翻译如下:
每天早上,一男的都会把他的车停在一个特定的地方。此君出手阔绰,每次都付给帮他看车的管理员10美元。几年之后,这个男的结婚了,但他继续把车停在那个地方。然而,稍有变化的是:婚后的他只付给看车人5美元了。
又过了几年,此君育有两子。他仍旧每天把车停在那地方。然而,现在的他只付1美元了。
一天,那车辆管理员叫住此君,询问钱从多到少的原因何在。他想知道,为什么现在那男的只付给他1美元——只有几年前的十分之一那么点儿了。自然,那男的对其行为变化自有一番说法。他说此一时彼一时,他现在开销巨大,必须留意如何分配自己的钱财。
那汽车管理员摇着脑袋抗议道:“先生,这不公平。你这是在花我的钱养活你的家啊。”
原文如下:
Everyday morning a man would park hiscar at a particular location. The man was generous and paid $10 to anattendant to take care of his car. A few years later, the man gotmarried but continued to park his car everyday at the same location.However, something changed. He paid only $5 to the attendant.
Afew years later, the man had a couple of kids. The man continued topark his car at the same location everyday. However, he paid only $1 tothe attendant.
Oneday the attendant stopped the man and asked him about the change inbehavior. He wanted to know why he only paid him a dollar - a mere 10%of what he used to pay him a few years earlier. The man, of course, hada good explanation for his change in behavior. He said that things werevery different when he was a bachelor. Now, he had a lot more expensesand he was careful how he spent his money.
The attendant shook his head and quipped "Sir, this is not fair. You are using my income to take care of your family."
