translation: If I were to walk into a room filled with my colleages and ask for their support right now and start to tell what I've just told you right now, I probably wouldn't get through two of those stories before they would start to get really uncomfortable, somebody would crack a joke, they'd change the subject and we would move on.
translation: Si entrara ahora a una sala llena de colegas, si les pidiera apoyo y les contara lo que les acabo de contar a Uds., no llegaría a la segunda historia sin que antes comenzaran a incomodarse, alguien haría una broma, cambiarían de tema y seguirían adelante.
