believe I talk about this crap all day. Bobby, come here.

Andy: I'm sorry.
Nigel: Don't make me feed you to one of the models.
Andy: Sorry. It's a busy day. My personal life is hanging by a thread, that's all.
Nigel: Oh, join the club. That's what happens when you start doing well at
work, darling. Let me know when your whole life goes
up in smoke. That means it's time for a promotion.

這個表達來自一個關于Damocles的傳說。Damocles是Syracuse國王Dionysius的一個大臣。國王厭煩了Damocles的阿諛奉承，邀請他前來赴宴，并讓他坐在僅用一根頭發懸吊的利劍下面，來警示他所處地位的危險。Damocles'

Damocles over the department for months. 部門可能要裁員的消息讓這幾個月來每個人都提心吊膽。
