jia6 tao5 ge1, kun4 tao5 ge5 niu3 吃頭家,睏頭家娘 (ref: jia6_01) |
tradition |
with room to be furnished by the wife of the boss and the meals to be furnished by the boss -- an extemely popular for-the-fun-of-saying-it joke, not to take seriously but as something fun to say: when someone was hired in the old Taiwanese boss-apprentice tradition, there was an agreement as to how the apprentice's room and board (his meals and a place for him to stay) would be furnished, and when they were to be taken care of by the boss, the apprentice might jokingly tell his friends that he would eat with the boss and sleep with the wife of the boss (not to offend anyone, but just for the fun of saying it), which everybody knew was not to be taken seriously. |
