Paying to paint the fish

Something that you could could afford to do, but won't do because you think it's a waste of money. Going above and beyond what's necessary for a normal person, and paying a premium price for it.
John - "Did you hear that Will put in a koi pond and had the fish painted color coordinated to his decor?"
Bob - "That's the most literal example of "paying to paint the fish" I've ever heard."

Full-time spirit and part-time pay

This expression refers to someone who has the performance, mentality, work ethic, and mindset of a (good) full-time employee but unfortunately has the pay of a part-time employee (as that is what they technically are).
I go above and beyond work all the time. I love it so much and hate it at the same time. It is such a complicated relationship I have and the situation has just really made me realize that I have a full-time spirit and part-time pay. It's truly so unfair!

Gender-pay gap

The biggest lie sold to humanity, only second to the existence of God, according to which women are paid less than men because they are women.
Often used by women who are unable to get promotions because they're simply not good enough at their job.
Taylor : I am a waitress and I do not get paid as much as my manager. This is gender-pay gap !!
