323　A Complaint of a Government Officer 政府官员的抱怨

For the first few months of her position in the State Government, my wife had nothing to do, so she surfed the Web or did crossword puzzles. One day she expressed her boredom to a co-worker. “I know,” he complained. “Everyone thinks state workers have it easy. But there's only so much you can pretend you're doing.”

我太太在州政府上班头几个月，没什么事情可做，于是她天天不是浏览互联网，就是玩纵横填字谜。有一天，她向一位同事表露她的厌倦。她的同事抱怨说：“是啊，大家都以为州政府的工作好做。但是，你可以假装在做的事情也只有这么一点点。”
