輕松日記商務(wù)職場篇第13期:被折磨的求職者
You are really put through the wringer at your jobinterview.
求職面試沒少讓你吃苦頭。
put somebody through the wringer 直譯過來就是“讓某人到絞肉機或榨汁機里去”，這個短語的真正意思是“使某人受盡折磨，使某人折磨一番”。因此當(dāng)美國人說:"You arereally put through the wringer at your jobinterview."時，他要表達(dá)的意思就是:"You are reallybothered by your job interview."、"The jobinterview really made you tired."。
