ACT YOUR AGE
Dear Teachers,
1. I make a good living but there is certainly no laughter on or off the job.
- What does "there is certainly no laughter on or off the job" mean here?
2. Growing up so many of us heard "grow up and act your age".
- "act your age" here means "act appropriately with your age", right?
Thanks a bunch to Teachers,
Stevenukd.
