sounds good Explanation: "走人" 是 slang 吧??? 常听人家这么说，所以用在这里应该没问题。 Hmm..this guy is wierd. If it's me, I'd rather get the $$ before I leave. ;) |

| correction-one happy = willing to; in return for = in exchange for Explanation: I was happy = I was satisfied/willing to = 我满意;我愿意 to jump before I was pushed = an idiom in return for some cash = in exchange for some cash => He chose voluntary redundancy (jump), rather than waiting to be laid off (be pushed). A friend who was travelling = travelling overseas probably = (在国外)旅行 got a flat = rented a flat and said I should join him for a bit = for a while |
