Not a diving day——这不是潜水的天！

　　As a commercial diver in the offshore oil fields of the Gulf of Mexico, I was assigned to a job on board a derrick barge. After my dive I spent the required time in the decompression chamber, and went to bed. Later I walked into the TV room, where I was surprised to see the entire dive crew sitting around. I asked one colleague, dressed in his wet suit, why work had stopped. Without looking up at me, he replied, "It's raining."

　　我在墨西哥湾的1个海面油田做职业潜水员，1次被指派到1艘吊杆起重驳船上工作。 在执行完潜水任务，并在减压舱完成规定时间的解压后，我就睡觉了。 之后，我走进电视室，惊奇地发现整个潜水队的工作人员都坐在了里面。 我问1个还穿着湿漉漉的潜水服的同事，为什么不接着干。 他头也不抬地回答，“正下雨呢”。
