703　We kept passing the money 我们把钱传下去

Pulling into my service station 45 minutes late one morning, I shouted to the customer, “I'll turn the pumps on right away!” What I didn't know was that the night crew had left them on all night. By the time I got to the office, most of the cars had filled up and driven off. Only one customer stayed. My heart sank. Then the customer pulled a wad of cash from his pocket and handed it to me. “We kept passing the money to the last guy,” he said. “We figured you'd get here sooner or later.”

一天早上我赶到我工作的加油站时，已经晚了45分钟。我对顾客大喊：“我马上把泵开起来。”我所不知道的是，夜班忘了关闭设备。等我到那里时许多车已经加完油走了，只有一个人留在那里。我的心沉下去了。然而，这个顾客从口袋里拿出一打现金交给我说：“我们把钱传给最后一个人，我们觉得你早晚会来的。”
