Dante Hicks：我今天不该出现在这！
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Randal Graves: You sound like an asshole! Jesus, nobody twisted your arm to be here. You're here of your own volition. You like to think the weight of the world rests on your shoulder. Like this place would fall apart if Dante wasn't here. Jesus, you overcompensate for having what's basically a monkey's job. You push fucking buttons. Anybody can just waltz in here and do our jobs. You-You're so obsessed with making it seem so much more epic, so much more important than it really is. Christ, you work in a convenience store, Dante! And badly, I might add! I work in a shitty video store, badly as well. You know, that guy Jay's got it right, man. He has no delusions about what he does. Us, we like to make ourselves seem so much more important than the people that come in here to buy a paper, or, god forbid, cigarettes. We look down on them as if we're so advanced. Well, if we're so fucking advanced, what are we doing working here?
Randal Graves：你听起来就像一个混蛋！天啊，没人强扭着你来。你来是因为你自己愿意。你喜欢把自己想象的很重要，好像没有你地球就不转了，这里就不行了。老天，你高估了这份连猴子都能做的工作。你认为自己很关键。其实谁都能一边跳华尔兹一边做。你醉心于让这份工作显得更伟大，比真实情况重要得许多。天哪，你是在便利店工作，Dante！并且做得很烂，我得补充！我在一个差劲的录像带出租店工作，干得也很差。Jay是对的，老兄。他很清楚自己做的事。我们喜欢让自己显得比那些来这买纸买烟的人重要。我们瞧不起他们，好像我们有多厉害。如果我们真的那么厉害，我们为什么还在这工作？ |
