haai

text: Een zware straf heet te Amsterdam: ”een haaie drukkerd”, gemakkelijk te verklaren met de onder boeven gewone vraag: ”Waar druk (zit) je voor”?

ref: 1915 January 17, Telegraaf:

english: A severe punishment is called ”a big pusher” in Amsterdam, easily explained when considering the question, common among criminals: ”What are you pushing (sitting) for”?

text: Een haaie tiejeits, een nieuw model brandkast, in zes uur geopereerd, zonder verdoving of zoentje van de zusters. De buit was tegengevallen, maar de gijn was razend geweest.

ref: 1951, Willem van Iependaal, De commissaris kan me nog meer vertellen, Van Daamen:

english: A fortified safe, a new model safety-deposit box, operated in six hours, without anesthetic or kiss from the nurse. The loot was disappointing, but the thrill had been marvellous.

text: Intusschen hebben we alle respect voor die haaie joodschr [sic] zakenlui: ôns ten voorbeeld, deinzen ze voor niets terug om hun doel te bereiken.

text: Het is een der twee ernstige candidaten voor het niet weinig begeerenswaardige baantje van president der Vereenigde Staten. 't Moet bovendien een zeer haaie jongen zijn. Zooals voor van den grond opgekomen toekomstige Amerikaansche presidenten gebruikelijk schijnt, is hij zijn loopbaan begonnen als krantjenjongen; was daarna aandragertje op de vischmarkt; werkte zich op tot verkooper en boekhouder; en werd om zijn gewikstheid door een Ierschen kroegbaas, die aan politiek deed — wat destijds synoniem was aan het verkwanselen van baantjes — geprotegeerd, waardoor hij het reeds bracht tot goeverneur van den staat New-York.

ref: 1928 July 4, “Wat op valt”, in Grafisch weekblad; orgaan van den Algemeenen Nederlandschen Typografenbond, volume 23, number 27:

english: He is one of two serious candites for the more-than-a-little desirable job of President of the United States. He is said to be a very crafty fellow. As seems usual for future American presidents who rise from nothing, he started his career as a newspaper salesboy; then was a porter at a fish market; worked his way up to salesman and bookkeeper; and for his cunning was made the protégé of an Irish publican, who dabbled in politics — which at the time was synonymous for handing out jobs left and right —, throught which he has already made it to Governor of New York State.

text: En heeft resoluut tot zich zelf gezegd: "Als ik zoo'n haaie knul ben, dat ik zelf het malheur vind, kan ik het zelf verhelpen ook" en is naar den winkel gestapt. Heeft daar met een air van gewicht een soldeerboutje besteld en een staafje harssoldeer. En heeft ten slotte zelf het zaakje weer in orde geprutst.

ref: 1928 July 14, “Radio-types. I. De soldeer-maniak”, in De radio; officieel orgaan van de Vereeniging van Arbeiders-Radio-Amateurs, volume 2, number 39, page 18:

english: And told himself resolutely: "If I'm such a clever lad, that I can find the problem myself, then I can fix it myself too" and marched to the shop. With a solemn air ordered a soldering iron and a stick of rosin solder. And finally tinkered the whole thing right again.

text: Aki was wat men noemt, een haaie jongen; hij zorgde dat, als hij iets gerold had, dit direct aan een ander werd overgegeven, zoodat bij hem nooit iets werd gevonden en zoo was 't ook hier geweest, maar begrijpelijkerwijs vertelde hij dit toen niet en omdat de medeplichtige niet gevonden werd, of liever het gestolen geld niet, kwam Aki weer ongehavend uit den strijd.

ref: 1931 September 26, A. Heeroma, “Uit den Strijd tegen de Misdaad; XXII. Zakkenrollers”, in Twentsch dagblad Tubantia en Enschedesche courant:

english: Aki was, as they say, a clever lad; when he pinched something, he made sure to pass it on someone straight away, so that nothing was ever found on him and so it was in this case too, but understandably he didn't say so then and because no collaborator was found, or rather no stolen money, Aki emerged from battle unharmed once more.
