This is a question First World Problems

Onemunki says: We live in a world of genuine tragedy, starvation and terror. So, after hearing stories of cruise line passengers complaining at the air conditioning breaking down, what stories of sheer single-minded self-pity get your goat?

My heart bleeds for them.
Oh no, hang on. I meant: I want to murder their families in front of them while they are tied to a chair and soaked in petrol (or even gas).
I used to work with someone who got very stressed because of a property dispute over his French gite and the difficulty of finding people to rent out his investment property, what kind of horse-box trailer to buy etc. etc.

I managed to avoid killing him by tuning out whenever he started a whinge.

Yeah.
Back when I was a drafter one of the fresh-from-school junior engineers was complaining about having to pay $600 in taxes on his Christmas bonus check. He was having to pay more in taxes than I had gotten over the previous two years.

I'm still not sure how I kept myself from force feeding him his computer keyboard.
