Translators went on strike. They want lower pay, fewer benefits, and more hours. They think that they are paid more than they are worth. That's what I like about my employees, but a strike?! See Karen Jones reply below for translation from the CEO.

I want to understand but I only read English. Humor me with translation?

It's just kind of a bit of nonsense: 'Why Porky Pig and Bugs Bunny, why do you not speak French?... Yet Mickey Mouse and his spouse drink 'To Life!' in their house.' ... Whatever, eh?! Thanks, Karen
