Are you the poorest possible people?
Perhaps the poorest possible airline passengers.

Technically, I don't pay it. It gets deducted from my credit.

Guys that tuck their shirts in when in a casual setting. Work or a social gathering, sure. I can see that and do it in most cases. But just hanging around, why the fuck does your knit polo need to be tucked in? Be comfortable for Christ’s sake.

Other than 2 concerts we worked last year, their games were the highest payouts we had the whole year. Demand was so high for their games this year, we got shut out and unless someone drops out, we won’t be working any of them.

I have a space heater up on Marketplace. Everyone who inquires thinks it’s a fucking fan, even though it says space heater in the header and is categorized as one.

When someone asks for your top, number 1 album/song/movie/thing/whatever and every wanker says "Ooh, there's too many to pick just one" and lists 20 things.

Yes, you can pick just one thing. It's not that hard. Man the fuck up.
