German term
Das ist mein Kegeltag.
Cette phrase se trouve dans une liste de raisons/prétextes que les employés peuvent fournir à la direction pour justifier l'impossibilité d'un changement dans le fonctionnement du travail. Les autres exemples sont entre autres "Ce n'est pas dans notre budget", "Nous ne sommes pas prêts", "C'est irréalisable", "Ce n'est pas mon travail", "L'idée ne me plaît pas"...
Je n'ai jamais entendu cette expression auparavant ! Toute aide serait la bienvenue.
Un grand merci d'avance !

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
