[3:34.869] 決kyut3賽coi3半bun3夜je6三saam1點dim2幾gei2打daa2,
The finals was at 3 am
[3:37.350] 好hou2彩coi2我ngo5較gaau3埋maai4鬧naau6鐘zung1起hei2身san1睇tai2。精zing1彩coi2!
Thankfully I set an alarm so I could get up to watch. Awesome!
[3:40.592] 早zou2呀aa3~你nei5哋dei6噚cam4晚maan5有jau5冇mou5睇tai2奧ou3運wan6香hoeng1港gong2第dai6一jat1金gam1啊aa3?
Goo~oood morning! Did you guys watch the first Gold for Hong Kong?
[3:44.330] 微mei4笑siu3劍gim3后hau6真zan1係hai6好hou2勁ging6啊aa3
The Smiling Queen was so good
[3:46.703] 梗gang2係hai6有jau5啦laa1,我ngo5睇tai2現jin6場coeng4直zik6播bo3,
Of course! I was watching it live
[3:49.056] 直zik6頭tau4聽teng1到dou3隔gaak3離lei4成seng4間gaan1屋uk1一jat1齊cai4叫giu3啊aa3!
and heard my neighbours screaming too!
[3:51.716] 我ngo5就zau6睇tai2到dou3好hou2感gam2動dung6嘞laak3。
I was very moved.
[3:53.542] 睇tai2返faan1佢keoi5啲di1報bou3導dou6先sin1知zi1,
Only after reading the reporting did I know
[3:55.366] 佢keoi5膝sat1頭tau4哥go1受sau6傷soeng1咁gam3嚴jim4重zung6都dou1克haak1服fuk6到dou2,
she overcame such serious knee injury,
[3:58.054] 真zan1係hai6要jiu3非fei1人jan4嘅ge3毅ngai6力lik6先sin1做zou6到dou2啊aa3。
it must have taken super-human determination.
[4:00.433] 苦fu2盡zeon6甘gam1來loi4,仲zung6勵lai6志zi3過gwo3啲di1勵lai6志zi3片pin3。
“Endure the bitterness until gam1 (sweetness) arrives”, this is more inspirational than inspirational films
[4:03.649] 唔m4知zi1跟gan1住zyu6張zoeng1家gaa1朗long5衛wai6冕min5成sing4唔m4成sing4功gung1呢ne1?
I wonder if Cheung can successfully defend his title?
[4:06.425] 哎aai1,苦fu2盡zeon6,又jau6唔m4通tung1個go3個go3都dou1拎ling1到dou3金gam1咩me1。
(sighs) Endure bitterness, but not everyone gets gam1 at the end.
[4:10.614] 今gam1朝ziu1睇tai2咁gam3多do1個go3洗sai2版baan2post,
After reading the wall of congratulatory posts
[4:12.878] 入jap6腦nou5嘅ge3就zau6剩zing6係hai6得dak1自zi6嘲zaau1嗰go2句geoi3:
The only thing that sticks was the self-deprecating line:
[4:15.700] 「香hoeng1港gong2人jan4OT唔m4會wui5輸syu1」。
“OverTime is when Hong Kongers never miss”
[4:18.539] 人jan4OT我ngo5OT,佢keoi5個go3「甘gam1」,
She overtime and I overtime, her gam1
[4:21.685] 就zau6係hai6「金gam1牌paai4」個go3「金gam1」同tung4「黃wong4金gam1」個go3「金gam1」啊aa3,
is the gam1 of Gold 金 like the gold medal and gold the precious metal
[4:25.061] 我ngo5嘅ge3OT呢ne1,
And my reward for overtime
[4:26.471] 就zau6係hai6俾bei2人jan4鏟caan2到dou3「甘gam1」個go3「甘gam1」囉lo1。
is gam1 甘 disastrous like the scolding I get.
[4:29.349] 誒ei6,話waa6唔m4定ding6你nei5今gam1日jat6福fuk1至zi3心sam1靈ling4手sau2風fung1順seon6,
Eh, maybe today Fortune Shines on you,
[4:33.924] 好hou2快faai3搞gaau2掂dim6,可ho2以ji5去heoi3埋maai4happy hour呢ne1?
you’d be quick to finish, and can even get off at happy hour?
[4:38.989] 嗱laa4嗱laa4嗱laa4真zan1係hai6發faat3夢mung6都dou1冇mou5咁gam3早zou2啊aa3。
Look look look. Don’t delude yourself.
[4:41.849] 啱ngaam1啱ngaam1Lucy又jau6send email嚟lai4
Lucy just sent another email
[4:44.083] 話waa6今gam1日jat6三saam1點dim2要jiu3開hoi1會wui2喇laa3。
saying that there is a meeting at 3 pm.
[4:47.008] 呢ni1個go3時si4間gaan3開hoi1會wui2又jau6真zan1係hai6有jau5啲di1尷gaam3尬gaai3𠸏ge2。
Meeting at that time is really inconvenient.
[4:50.397] Lucy出ceot1名meng2唔m4等dang2得dak1,
Lucy has a reputation for being not very patient,
[4:52.229] 要jiu3你nei5今gam1日jat6改goi2起hei2埋maai4佢keoi5,你nei5都dou1走zau2唔m4甩lat1㗎gaa3喇laa3。
If she wants the edit made today, I think you’ll have no choice.
[4:55.403] 嘩waa3,剩zing6係hai6話waa6「唔m4等dang2得dak1」,
Heh, “not very patient”,
[4:57.414] Annie咁gam3厚hau5道dou6啊aa3?
Annie, you are sooo kind.
[4:59.970] 對deoi3唔m4住zyu6Jimmy都dou1要jiu3講gong2句geoi3嘞laak3:
Sorry Jimmy, but I just have to say,
[5:02.159] 我ngo5今gam1個go3project唔m4使sai2跟gan1佢keoi5,還waan4得dak1神san4落lok6。
I didn’t have to work for her on this project, I should really go make offerings to the gods.
[5:05.975] 佢keoi5個go3名meng2改goi2得dak1好hou2:
Her name is just right:
[5:07.277] Lucy Lucy,掠loek6食sik6掠loek6食sik6。
Lucy, Lucy, loek6-sik6 (predator) loek6-sik6.
[5:10.386] 哎ai1呀jaa3,你nei5俾bei2啲di1建gin3設cit3性sing3啦laa1,
Gosh, c’mon, be constructive,
[5:12.649] 搞gaau2到dou3佢keoi5仲zung6冇mou5心sam1機gei1喇laa3而ji4家gaa1。
You’re just making Jimmy feel more despondent.
[5:14.552] 嗱naa4Jimmy,今gam1日jat6一jat1齊cai4食sik6個go3快faai3飯faan6喇laa3晏aan3晝zau3,
So Jimmy, let’s eat a quick lunch today,
[5:17.731] 食sik6飽baau2咪mai6有jau5力lik6做zou6嘢je5囉lo1!
A full belly gives you energy to do stuff!
[5:19.700] 睇tai2下haa5啲di1嘢je5跟gan1成seng4點dim2先sin1啦laa1…
Let’s see how it works…
[5:22.094] 唔m4講gong2喇laa3,再zoi3做zou6唔m4完jyun4,
Can’t talk now, if I don’t finish this,
[5:24.729] 就zau6連lin4食sik6物mat6鏈lin2最zeoi3底dai1層cang4啊aa3我ngo5都dou1冇mou5得dak1做zou6啊aa3。
I won’t have a place even on the lowest level of the foodchain.
[5:32.072] (深sam1呼fu1吸kap1聲sing1,敲haau1門mun4聲sing1)Lucy,
(deep breath, knocks) Lucy,
[5:33.308] 你nei5而ji4家gaa1得dak1閒haan4傾king1幾gei2句geoi3?
Are you free for a chat?
[5:35.668] 我ngo5一jat1路lou6等dang2緊gan2你nei5喇laa3。
I have been waiting for you.
[5:37.502] 我ngo5打daa2緊gan2個go3email,你nei5坐co5低dai1等dang2等dang2啦laa1。
I am writing an email. Take a seat and wait.
[5:44.894] (自zi6言jin4自zi6語jyu5)死sei2啦laa1,
(mumbles to himself) This is gonna be bad
[5:45.757] 睇tai2咗zo2第dai6一jat1稿gou2成sing4朝ciu4,
I was looking over the first draft all morning,
[5:47.314] 劃waak6到dou3污wu1哩li1馬maa5查caa4噉gam2樣joeng2,
She scratched a mess on the draft,
[5:49.454] 我ngo5都dou1睇tai2唔m4明ming4究gau3竟ging2佢keoi5寫se2緊gan2啲di1乜mat1嘢je5嘢je5,
I don’t even know what she was writing
[5:52.102] 要jiu3我ngo5改goi2啲di1乜mat1嘢je5嘢je5。
And what she want me to fix.
[5:53.500] 上soeng6次ci3已ji5經ging1好hou2婉jyun2轉zyun2噉gam2
Last time I tactfully
[5:54.944] 請ceng2佢keoi5喺hai2側zak1邊bin1加gaa1個go3comment格gaak3仔zai2打daa2字zi6,
Asked her to type the comment in the margin
[5:57.838] 唔m4好hou2再zoi3寫se2喺hai2內noi6文man4㗎gaa3啦laa1。
Instead of scribbling in the text.
[5:59.803] 佢keoi5就zau6即zik1刻hak1話waa6佢keoi5做zou6人jan4呢ne1好hou2有jau5規kwai1矩geoi2,
She repudiated me right then, that she is a very disciplined person,
[6:03.498] 沖cung1完jyun4涼loeng4就zau6唔m4會wui5用jung6電din6腦nou5,
After shower she does not use the computer,
[6:06.024] 繼gai3續zuk6做zou6嘢je5就zau6用jung6平ping4板baan2。
and if she continues to work, she uses a tablet.
[6:08.285] 用jung6平ping4板baan2就zau6梗gang2係hai6用jung6筆bat1寫se2快faai3過gwo3打daa2字zi6啦laa1,
Writing is of course faster than typing when using a tablet,
[6:11.519] 噉gam2先sin1算syun3有jau5效haau6率leot2,叫giu3我ngo5學hok6下haa6佢keoi5𡁜wo5。
So this is efficiency and I should learn to be like her.
[6:14.822] 哎aai1,學hok6佢keoi5嗰go2啲di1古gu2怪gwaai3規kwai1矩geoi2,
(sighs) Learn to follow her many strange rules,
[6:17.685] 定ding6係hai6學hok6佢keoi5廿jaa6四sei3七cat1返faan1工gung1啊aa3?
or learn to work 24/7 like her?
[6:20.282] 但daan6係hai6我ngo5全cyun4部bou6都dou1唔m4想soeng2學hok6囉lo1。
But I don’t want to learn any of those!
[6:23.063] 因jan1為wai6佢keoi5個go3效haau6率leot2啊aa3,
Her efficiency
[6:24.549] 令ling6到dou3我ngo5好hou2冇mou2效haau6率leot2啊aa3…
made me inefficient…
[6:28.579] …Jimmy Jimmy Jimmy,我ngo5叫giu3咗zo2你nei5三saam1次ci3喇laa3!
…Jimmy Jimmy Jimmy, I called you for the third time!
[6:33.134] 你nei5咁gam3唔m4專zyun1心sam1,個go3樣joeng6又jau6咁gam3眼ngaan5瞓fan3,
You are so lacking in focus, and look so tired,
[6:35.907] 唔m4係hai6好hou2似ci5啲di1人jan4噉gam2
Don’t tell me that you’re one of those people
[6:37.699] 半bun3夜je2起hei2身san1睇tai2奥ou3運wan6呀aa6嘛maa5?
who gets up to watch the Olympics in the middle of the night.
[6:39.832] 如jyu4果gwo2你nei5唔m4使sai2瞓fan3咁gam3多do1嘅ge3,
If you don’t need to sleep
[6:41.331] 不bat1如jyu4用jung6埋maai4啲di1時si4間gaan3
Then you should use the time
[6:42.328] 嚟lai4寫se2好hou2個go3proposal啦laa1。
to write a better proposal.
[6:43.865] 話waa6就zau6話waa6係hai6初co1稿gou2,
Yes, it’s called a “first draft”,
[6:45.605] 但daan6係hai6都dou1唔m4係hai6交gaau1啲di1噉gam2嘅ge3質zat1素sou3比bei2我ngo5呀aa6嘛maa5?
But you still shouldn’t submit something of this quality, no?
[6:48.583] 哎aai1Lucy唔m4好hou2意ji3思si1嗄aa2。
Eh, sorry Lucy,
[6:50.580] 我ngo5噚cam4晚maan5呢ne1,十sap6點dim2鐘zung1先sin1瞓fan3得dak1着zoek6,
Last night, err, I went to sleep at 10 pm,
[6:53.151] 不bat1過gwo3呢ne1就zau6瞓fan3得dak1唔m4係hai6咁gam3好hou2嘅ge3。
But I didn’t sleep very well.
[6:55.431] 啊aa3講gong2返faan1個go3proposal先sin1,
Let’s come back to the proposal,
[6:57.199] 我ngo5啱ngaam1啱ngaam1send咗zo2第dai6二ji6稿gou2俾bei2你nei5。
I just sent you the second draft,
[6:58.970] 不bat1過gwo3呢ne1,有jau5幾gei2個go3位wai2
but, there’s a few points,
[7:00.153] 我ngo5唔m4係hai6好hou2明ming4白baak6你nei5寫se2嘅ge3comment。
I didn't understand the comment you wrote.
[7:02.283] 例lai6如jyu4呢ni1度dou6呢ne1,
For example, here,
[7:03.234] 紅hung4色sik1三saam1角gok3形jing4加gaa1埋maai4sld
The red triangle with letters “sld”
[7:05.956] 呢ni1三saam1個go3英jing1文man2字zi6母mou5係hai6啲di1乜mat1嘢je5意ji3思si1啊aa3…
What does that mean…
[7:09.163] 今gam1朝ziu1成sing4朝ciu4咁gam3多do1時si4間gaan3你nei5又jau6唔m4問man6我ngo5?
You had all morning to ask, and you didn’t?
[7:11.675] 我ngo5星sing1期kei4六luk6晚maan5已ji5經ging1寫se2好hou2晒saai3叫giu3你nei5改goi2嘅ge3內noi6容jung4。
On Saturday I have already wrote what I needed you to fix.
[7:14.670] 講gong2返faan1轉zyun3頭tau4,
Coming to think of it,
[7:15.647] 你nei5噚cam4日jat6都dou1已ji5經ging1可ho2以ji5send email問man6我ngo5啦laa1,
You could have send an email to ask me yesterday,
[7:18.484] 拖to1到dou3而ji4家gaa1?
But you have to let it drag on until today.
[7:19.811] 吖aa1其kei4實sat6你nei5有jau5幾gei2重zung6視si6工gung1作zok3
(And that makes one wonder) How much do you prioritise Work
[7:22.423] 同tung4埋maai4工gung1作zok3效haau6率leot2㗎gaa3呢ne1吓haa2?
and Work Efficiency?
[7:24.196] 誒ei6我ngo5今gam1個go3weekend呢ne1,
Err, well, this weekend,
[7:26.434] 就zau6冇mou5帶daai3電din6腦nou5返faan1屋uk1企kei2嘅ge3,
I didn't bring the laptop home,
[7:28.424] 同tung4埋maai4我ngo5覺gok3得dak1用jung6iPad呢ne1
and I feel that the iPad
[7:30.252] 又jau6冇mou5咁gam3方fong1便bin6做zou6到dou3改goi2動dung6。
Wasn’t so convenient for making edits.
[7:32.340] 再zoi3加gaa1上soeng5禮lai5拜baai3日jat6我ngo5間gaan3唔m4中zung3呢ne1,
Plus, on Sundays, every now and then,
[7:34.507] 都dou1會wui5去heoi3狗gau2場coeng4做zou6義ji6工gung1,
I volunteer at the dog shelter,
[7:36.034] 所so2以ji5我ngo5今gam1朝ziu1返faan1嚟lai4先sin1跟gan1進zeon3返faan1。
so I only followed up on your comments this morning.
[7:38.720] Lucy,噉gam2呢ni1個go3紅hung4色sik1三saam1角gok3形jing4同tung4埋maai4…
Lucy, so, this red triangle and…
[7:41.540] 咪mai5住zyu6先sin1,得dak1平ping4板baan2唔m4係hai6一jat1個go3藉zik6口hau2嚟lai4㗎gaa3喎wo3,
Wait. Only having a tablet available is not an excuse,
[7:44.972] 我ngo5都dou1用jung6平ping4板baan2做zou6嘢je5𠺝gaak3。
I also do work on a tablet (and it is not an issue).
[7:46.557] 你nei5星sing1期kei4五ng5夜je6晚maan5八baat3點dim2send俾bei2我ngo5個go3初co1稿gou2呢ne1,
The first draft you sent me on Friday 8 pm,
[7:49.906] 我ngo5用jung6平ping4板baan2改goi2,
I corrected it on a tablet,
[7:51.182] 咪mai5第dai6二ji6日jat6就zau6已ji5經ging1send返faan2俾bei2你nei5囉lo1。
and didn’t I managed to send it back to you the next day?
[7:53.158] 你nei5睇tai2吖aa1,
You see,
[7:54.059] 完jyun4全cyun4係hai6視si6乎fu4你nei5願jyun6意ji3付fu6出ceot1幾gei2多do1時si4間gaan3㗎gaa3咋zaa3,
it’s entirely about how much time you are willing to put in,
[7:56.865] 肯hang2唔m4肯hang2郁juk1下haa5個go3腦nou5,
whether you want to use your brain,
[7:58.302] 諗nam2下haa6點dim2樣joeng2善sin6用jung6資zi1源jyun4嚟lai4幫bong1你nei5自zi6己gei2完jyun4成sing4工gung1作zok3啦laa1。
think a little about how to use resources effectively to help finish your work.
[8:02.310] 誒ei6誒ei6Lucy明ming4白baak6嘅ge3,
Yes yes Lucy, I understand that,
[8:04.345] 噉gam2我ngo5出ceot1去heoi3諗nam2返faan1自zi6己gei2嘅ge3工gung1作zok3模mou4式sik1
so I will go out and reflect on how I work
[8:07.320] 可ho2以ji5點dim2改goi2善sin6啦laa1。
and where I can improve.
[8:08.297] 要jiu3做zou6到dou2成sing4績zik1出ceot1嚟lai4呢ne1,
If you want to have good results,
[8:09.937] 就zau6千cin1祈kei4唔m4可ho2以ji5花faa1多do1少siu2少siu2時si4間gaan3
(2) You cannot feel that you had been taken advantaged of
[8:12.448] 就zau6覺gok3得dak1自zi6己gei2蝕sik6晒saai3底dai2噉gam2樣joeng2㗎gaa3。
(1) the moment you need to spend a little more time.
[8:14.909] 我ngo5都dou1經ging1歷lik6過gwo3你nei5呢ni1個go3階gaai1段dyun6,
I went through the same phase as you,
[8:16.575] 啱ngaam1啱ngaam1入jap6職zik1嗰go2陣zan6啊aa3,
when I first joined the company,
[8:18.070] 我ngo5差caa1唔m4多do1日jat6日jat6都dou1做zou6到dou3八baat3點dim2,
I worked until 8 pm almost every day,
[8:19.837] 其kei4他taa1同tung4事si6都dou1冇mou5我ngo5咁gam3勤kan4力lik6,
and the other co-workers were not as hard-working.
[8:21.902] 啊aa3好hou2自zi6然jin4嗱naa4,老lou5細sai3升sing1職zik1,
So very naturally, when it comes to promotion time,
[8:24.259] 你nei5話waa6會wui5揀gaan2邊bin1個go3吖aa1嗱naa4?
Who do you think the boss would pick?
[8:26.140] 咪mai5就zau6係hai6我ngo5囉lo1。
Of course it’s me!
[8:27.124] 你nei5哋dei6啲di1後hau6生saang1啊aa3,
You young people,
[8:28.316] 呢ne1輩bui3成seng4日jat6話waa6我ngo5哋dei6呢ne1就zau6到dou3收sau1成sing4期kei4…
your generation make snide comments about us just waiting for Harvest Time…
[8:38.927] (滴dik6答daap3聲sing1)Jimmy望mong6住zyu6個go3秒miu5鐘zung1一jat1下haa5一jat1下haa5噉gam2跳tiu3,
(tik tok) Jimmy watches the second hand on the clock ticking and ticking,
[8:42.268] Lucy就zau6一jat1路lou6繼gai3續zuk6說syut3好hou2自zi6己gei2嘅ge3人jan4生sang1故gu3事si6。
While Lucy heaps praise on her own life story.
[8:45.862] Jimmy唯wai4有jau5用jung6佢keoi5嘅ge3返faan1工gung1格gaak3言jin4:
Jimmy summons his work motto:
[8:48.546] 「人jan4工gung1包baau1埋maai4嘅ge3」;
“The salary paid for it”
[8:50.396] 一jat1路lou6催ceoi1眠min4自zi6己gei2,忍jan2住zyu6唔m4問man6第dai6三saam1次ci3,
With that he hypnotises himself, and suppress the urge to ask for the third time,
[8:53.624] 個go3紅hung4色sik1三saam1角gok3形jing4符fu4號hou2到dou3底dai2係hai6咩me1。
just what does that red triangle means.
[8:56.561] 佢keoi5隱jan2約joek3覺gok3得dak1心sam1裡leoi5面min6有jau5啲di1哽ang2住zyu6哽ang2住zyu6,
He feels that there is some thorn pricking at his heart,
[8:59.407] 但daan6係hai6呢ni1一jat1刻haak1嘅ge3佢keoi5,
but Jimmy, at this moment,
[9:01.497] 未mei6諗nam2得dak1通tung1嗰go2個go3係hai6一jat1個go3點dim2嘅ge3感gam2覺gok3。
cannot yet understand what he is really feeling.
[9:04.552] 最zeoi3後hau6,Lucy喺hai2四sei3點dim2四sei3十sap6五ng5分fan1,
At last, at 16:45, Lucy
[9:07.668] 終zung1於jyu1開hoi1始ci2解gaai2釋sik1初co1稿gou2上soeng6面min6
finally starts to explain,
[9:09.770] 唔m4同tung4顏ngaan4色sik1嘅ge3形jing4狀zong6同tung4英jing1文man2字zi6母mou5到dou3底dai2係hai6咩me1意ji3思si1,
what the different colors and shapes and alphabet means,
[9:13.618] Jimmy亦jik6成sing4功gung1喺hai2五ng5點dim2正zing3離lei4開hoi1Lucy間gaan1房fong4。
and Jimmy successfully left Lucy’s office at exactly 5 o’clock.
[9:16.989] 當dong1然jin4,屬suk6於jyu1Jimmy嘅ge3happy hour,
Of course, the happy hour that belongs to Jimmy,
[9:19.886] 就zau6係hai6喺hai2office裡leoi5面min6,
is inside the office,
[9:21.592] 一jat1邊bin1聽teng1住zyu6由jau4自zi6己gei2一jat1手sau2製zai3作zok3,
simultaneously listening to his own creation —
[9:24.077] 嘀dik1嘀dik1嘚daak1嘚daak1打daa2字zi6聲seng1嘅ge3節zit3奏zau3,
the rhythm of fingers on the keyboard —
[9:26.402] 一jat1邊bin1享hoeng2用jung6嗰go2日jat6嘅ge3第dai6三saam1杯bui1double espresso。
and enjoying the third double espresso of the day.
[9:35.398] 本bun2來lei4我ngo5都dou1怕paa3捱ngaai4夜je2,
I used to fret staying up late,
[9:37.288] 但daan6係hai6噚cam4晚maan5半bun3夜je2真zan1係hai6值zik6得dak1捱ngaai4呀aa3!
But staying up late last night was totally worth it!
[9:39.560] 張zoeng1家gaa1朗long5真zan1係hai6攞lo2到dou2第dai6二ji6面min6金gam1牌paai4喎wo3!
Cheung Ka Long really won the second gold medal!
[9:41.902] 係hai6啊aa3係hai6啊aa3,OT嗰go2三saam1劍gim3
Yes yes, those three strikes during overtime
[9:43.583] 真zan1係hai6搞gaau2到dou3人jan4爆baau3血hyut3管gun2啊aa3!
Almost gave me a heart attack!

It’s so automatic that they need no admonishment!
[9:57.544] 「社se5畜cuk1」呢ni1個go3稱cing1呼fu1真zan1係hai6唔m4係hai6浪long6得dak1虛heoi1名ming4㗎gaa3。
There’s a good reason we’re called “societal beasts of burden”.

Doing it with heart, not getting deterred by boredom, exhaustion, and hard work, respect!

And with another sound, this time, it’s his feet landing.
