English term or phrase: "tri-lagers" (three lagers)
Teacher: What is your job?
X: Por favor?
Z: Trabajo?
X: Ah! Trabajo, sí! Tri-lager.
Teacher: Tree logger? What? You lag trees?
X: One Gin-Tonic, two whisky-coca, tri-lager.
Teacher: Tri-lagers. Do you work in a bar?
X: Sí, sí, bar, bar.

Como posso fazer aqui o trocadilho com as palavras? Não faço ideia se X está a querer dizer que trabalha num bar chamado "Three Lagers" no Reino Unido... haveria algum com este nome nos anos 70? Procurei, mas não encontrei.
Por outro lado, estará ele a dizer que é "bartender" e que costuma fazer essas bebidas?
Obrigada.
