【英语时差8,16】赚钱的清闲差事-上（在线收听）

Diarmuid: Hi Jean. What's that you're reading? Jean: Hi Diarmuid. I'm just reading a newspaper report about people who work for the BBC. Diarmuid: Hey! We work for the BBC. What does the newspaper say about us? Jean: Well, it says here that people who work for the BBC get paid far too much money. Diarmuid: Too much money? I don't think my salary is too high. Jean: Well, look at the headline in the newspaper: "BBC Stars On The Gravy Train. Huge Salaries for TV Presenters." Diarmuid: Well, I suppose the top TV presenters do get paid a lot of money. Jean: But what about this phrase 'on the gravy train'. Diarmuid: Ah yes, the gravy train. That is a strange phrase. Jean: But what does it mean? Diarmuid: Good question. In English we use the phrase 'on the gravy train' to mean that someone has a very easy job that pays them a lot of money.
