 Bill Jenkins worked in a big office in the city, and he used to go to the barber’s during working hours to have his hair cut, although this was against the rule: clerks (职员) had to have their hair cut in their own time.

  While Bill was at the barber’s one day, the manager of the office came in by chance to have his own hair cut. Bill saw him and tried to hide his face, but the manager found him.

   “Yes, sir, I am,” admitted Bill calmly, “You see, sir, it grows in office time.”
