KICK BACK
Dear Teachers,
1. They're broke. They've gone through their paycheck for the week already.
- What does "paycheck" mean?
2. I've had a bad day,too. I just want to kick back and relax.
- What does "kick back" mean?
3. Just because you had a bad day today doesn't give you permission to take it out on me.
- What does "take it out on me" mean here?
Thanks very much to Teachers,
Stevenukd.
