cut sb some slack (야단치지 않고) 을 조금 너그럽게 봐주다

"All I know is, I've done lots of bad stuff in my life, Bob.
I've had to forgive myself plenty, just, you know, to get through the day,"
Boss gazes at me with her wise, weary eyes.
"And I figure if I'm going to forgive myself,
I'd better be ready to cut everyone else some slack. too."
