Joey: If you ask me, as long as① you got this job, you’ve got nothing pushing you to get another one. You need the fear.1

乔伊:要我说,只要你还有这份工作,就没有找新工作的动力。你需要的是“恐惧”。

Rachel: The fear?

瑞秋:恐惧?

Chandler: He’s right. If you quit②this job, you then have motivation to go after③a job you really want.

钱德勒:他说得对,如果你辞掉这份工作,你就会有动力追求你心目中理想的工作。

Rachel: Well then how come you’re still at a job that you hate? I mean why don’t you quit and get “the fear”?

瑞秋:那为什么你还在做你讨厌的工作呢?你怎么不辞职来获得“恐惧”呢?

Chandler: Because, I’m too afraid.2

钱德勒:因为,我太害怕了。

Rachel: I don’t know. I mean I would give anything to work for a designer, y’know, or a buyer.... Oh, I just don’t want to be 30 and still work here.

瑞秋:我不知道,我是说,我愿意不顾一切地为设计师或采购员工作……哦,我就是不想到了30岁的时候还在这里工作。

Chandler: Yeah, that’d be much worse than being 28, and still working here.3

钱德勒:对,那是要比28岁了还在这里工作糟糕多了。

Gunther: Rachel?

冈瑟:瑞秋?

Rachel: Yeah.

瑞秋:干嘛?

Gunther: Remind④ me to review with you which pot is decaf and which is regular.

冈瑟:提醒我跟你复习哪壶是低因咖啡,哪壶是普通咖啡。

Rachel: Can’t I just look at the handles on them?

瑞秋:我难道就不能只看杯子的把手吗?

Gunther: You would think.4
