Только на рыбалке

А зачем на рыбалке кто-нибудь, кроме собаки нужен? Там тишина нужна. Может быть, я устаю от людей на работе, и после работы мне нужна тишина.

Пролетариат любить трудно. Может быть, я сноб, но считаю, что классы не должны смешиваться. Ничего хорошего из этого никогда не выходило и не выйдет.

Does that mean you never pee with the peons?:wink1:

Where?

The English words peon and peonage were derived from the Spanish word, and have a variety of meanings related to the Spanish usages, as well as some other meanings. In the English-speaking world in general, the term peon is used colloquially to mean a person with little authority, often assigned unskilled or drudgerous tasks; an underling. In this sense, peon can be used in either a derogatory or self-effacing context.
There are several ways in which the word is used:
American English: in a historical and legal sense, peon generally only had the meaning of someone working in an unfree labor system (known as peonage). The word often implied debt bondage and/or indentured servitude.
See also: Black Codes in the USA
South Asian English: a peon is usually an office boy, an attendant, or an orderly, a person kept around for odd jobs (and, historically, a policeman or foot soldier). In an unrelated South Asian sense, "peon" may also be an alternative spelling for the poon tree (genus Calophyllum) or its wood, especially when used in boat-building.
Shanghai: among native Chinese working in firms where English is often spoken, the word has been phonetically reinterpreted as "pee-on", again a reference to a worker with little authority suffering indignities from superiors.
Computing slang: a peon is an "unprivileged user"—a person without special privileges on a computer system. The other extreme is "superuser."
Financial trading slang: a peon is a term used to describe a market participant who trades in derisorily small size, alternatively used to describe a small account.
