Apocryphal story:

Military plane at a civilian airport, number one for departure, doing lengthy pre-departure checks and causing a bit of a hold-up. Eventually the controller gets exasperated and goes:

"Flight XYZ, how much longer before ready?"

"Another 5-10 minutes, XYZ"

"Well, the people behind you are paying for their fuel, you know?"

"Affirm. They're paying for ours too."
