If you think you have the worst job ever, look around! You're sure to find somebody with a worse one.

Si piense que tiene el peor trabajo del mundo, mire en su alrededor, ¡Seguro que va a encontrar a alguien con uno peor!

Sadly I had to say goodbye to my best friend who is leaving for Germany, and worst of all is that I wanted to go before him. wink

Tristemente tuve que decirle adiós a mi mejor amigo quien se va a Alemania, lo peor de todo es que yo quería ir antes que él.

The worst thing is not knowing what you should do or not being able to do what you know you should do.

Lo peor es que no saber qué debes hacer o no ser capaz de hacer lo que sabes que debes hacerlo.

The worst thing is that he has chosen the wrong time and place for his relaxation.

La peor cosa es que ha escogido el momento y el lugar incorrectos para relajarse.

If you plan to go to India, better visit your dentist before you go. Some dentists in India have to work under the worst circumstances you can imagine . . . . . .

Si planeas ir a la India, más te vale visitar al dentista antes de ir allá. Algunos dentistas en la India tienen que trabajar en las peores circunstancias que te puedas imaginar . . . . .

A causa de que tienes sólo un día que sea el peor día de la vida, y uno que sea el mejor, casi todos los días sean ni uno ni otro.

Como solo hay un día que es el mejor de tu vida y otro que es el peor, la mayoría de los días no son ni lo uno ni lo otro.

Since you only have only one day that is the worst day of your life, and one that is the best, most days are neither.
