I worked in the golf industry for 35 years and although I loved my job, it was irritating to hear people coming in after playing and complaining about little things. I was stuck in the shop for ten to twelve hours and didn't get to play as much as I would have liked and instead of appreciating how fortunate these people were to be out playing golf, they came in whining about the greens were too slow or they got a bad lie in a fairway.

Like I said, I loved my job, but it was annoying and frustrating to hear people who should have been out enjoying themselves come in complaining while you were working hard to make their time at the club as enjoyable as possible.
