法学院毕业前 我接了这份工作
Took this job before I finished law school.
那时我急于找工作 怕我的贷款即将到期
I wanted any job. I was afraid of my loans coming due.
当时并不知道贝尔费在哪
I didn’t know where Belfry was.
我以为是贝尔格莱德 那可近多了
I guess I was thinking about Belgrade, which is a lot closer.
真是愚蠢
So stupid.
然后我找到了事务所工作
Then I got a real job.
他们让我来教课 因为他们觉得很有趣
And they’re letting me do this because they think it’s funny.
来程路上结冰 花了我四个钟头
The pass is icy. It takes me four hours to get here.
再花四小时回程
It’s gonna take me four hours to get back.
早晨我还得工作
I have to work in the morning.
你有告诉我 为何来上这门课吗?
Did you tell me how you ended up in this class?
我看到有人进教室
I just saw people going in.
我刚刚是不是出糗了?
Did I make a fool of myself?
不 我觉得很有趣
No. It was interesting.
我从不知道学生也有权利
I never knew a student had any rights.
你会再来听吗?
You gonna come back?
下次上课什么时候?
When’s it next?
星期四
Thursday.
每周二和周四 连续九周
Every Tuesday and Thursday for nine weeks.
但我没有报名登记
Well, I’m not signed up or anything.
他们不会查的
They’re not gonna check.
我甚至不懂学校法
I don’t even know school law.
所以上课前 自己得先学一遍
I’m gonna have to learn enough to teach it every time.
–给你 –谢谢
Here ya go. – Thank you.
你确定什么都不要吗?
Sure you don’t want anything?
你在哪工作?

Out on the Hadden Ranch.
照顾马匹 要做一整个冬天
Caring for the horses. It’s just a winter job.
你要不要吃另一半?
You want the other half?
不用了
No.
你如果待久一点 我可以带你四处看看
I’d show you, if you could stay longer.
看什么?
Show me what?
牧场 马
The ranch. The horses.
我必须回去 明早还要上班

It all worked out.
我是个律师 有份完美的工作 每15分钟就开车到贝尔费
