"The squeaking wheel gets the grease" = bánh xe kêu sẽ được tra dầu -> nghĩa là người phàn nàn, phản đối nhiều nhất, to nhất thì sẽ được chú ý từ nhiều người khác.
Ví dụ
I guess the squeaking wheel gets the grease. My wheels are always squeaking, but I see very little lubricant (dầu bôi trơn).
I will just keep on rocking with trusty canine companion by my side and my musket and dry powder supply within arm’s reach.
“Behind the political scenes, I would think the launch guys from right here are saying, ‘Oh, they’re taking my business and going launch for free over there in the parish, and they’re putting me out of business,’” he said afterwards. “So the squeaking wheel gets the grease, but we’re fixing to do some squeaking.”
They say that the "squeaking wheel gets the grease" and to some extent, that's true. However, in a work environment, it is usually much easier to replace that squeaking wheel. If you have complaints (phàn nàn), see what you can do by yourself to solve them.
