impaytience

The inability to unfrettingly wait for monetary rewards.
While it's completely true that it is indeed unhealthy for everyone involved if someone cannot display a reasonable degree of calmness when having to postpone financial gain/reimbursement, the opposite "extreme" can also be used abusively, as well --- in other words, the person(s) responsible for doling out said greatly-desired funds to the aggravated-with-the-delay individual can invalidly identify the person's tearful foot-tapping as "impaytience", when in reality it HAS INDEED been an unreasonably-long period of time that said person has been waiting for his promised cash-reward, and so he could NOT reasonably have been expected to just placidly wait that long.
