Anytime someone is short on patience and high on demands, I always ask if they are former military.

I wonder if Paul was in the military?
1 Cor 16:13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.
2 Tim 2:3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
