	Comments:	I approved the dropping "to be idle" because it lacked the context of the term.

	Refs:	koj
	Comments:	「何サボってんの？」 can mean "why are you slacking off" i.e. "get back to work" most importantly, it can be said by a teacher to an idle student (e.g. student chatting with friend) with no insinuation that the student is cutting class at the moment "to be idle" was not a bad translation
