"خب، میدونی اون چیزی که دور گردنت میگذاری و کارت شناساییت رو نگه میداره؟ من به اون میگم بند بونجی چون مهم نیست چقدر سعی کنی از کارت فرار کنی، همیشه تو رو برمیگردونه به اتاقک کارت."
— Jerry Seinfeld
Simplified Meaning:
Imagine you have something around your neck that keeps your work ID badge. Just like a bungee cord, no matter how far you go, it pulls you back. This is saying that your job can sometimes feel like that. You might want to escape, take a break, or even run away, but your job responsibilities always bring you back. For example, think about a time when you were on vacation and got a call or email from work even though you tried to disconnect. It can feel like you are being pulled back to your office or work duties. This idea suggests that work can be hard to completely escape from, so it's important to find ways to manage it without letting it take over your life. You could set boundaries, like not checking work emails after a certain time, to prevent this “bungee cord” from always pulling you back.
