favor from above

A favor from above is completed when you are perched high above your friends wedding with a sniper rifle and pick him off the altar just before he weds his fiance. This is most commonly done because you can't stand the bitch he's going to marry and you need to put your friend out of his indefinite misery.
Duder 1: "Damn dude can't belive the big day is next week. Is she letting you have a bachelor party?"

Duder 2: "No, she said I can't have one. But she's having like three bachelorette parties."

Duder 1: "Wow dude you're miserable. Hopefully you'll receive a favor from above next week..."

Above my Paygrade

Being asked to do something at work that is way above and beyond the pittance that you actually get paid. Can also be used in everyday situations when one is asked to do something that will inconvenience their everyday life.
Example 1

Boss: Alice, I need you to give me the calculations on those reports by close of play today!

*Blank stare from Alice*

Boss: Well don't just look at me...get started!

Alice: Dude, I'm just the secretary. Doing detailed reports is way above my paygrade.

*Boss mumbles curses*

Boss: Fine then! I'll get Smithers to do it...

Example 2

Chick 1: So did you hook up with Scotty in the end?

Chick 2: Nah, I found out that he was two-timing me so I bailed out...

Chick 1: That's a shame dude...but why didn't you fight for your man? I would have if it was me...

Chick 2: Sorry but fighting over a loser is way above my paygrade.

Chick 1: True..true...
