Anothe analogy: Oh never mind, I couldn't hink of a good one.

Anyone else wanna try!
I've got one for you:

You and a lady friend are at a nice restaraunt, not fancy just a freindly looking little place in the neghborhood. You order an appetizer while you look over the menu, meanwhile sitting not far from you is a guy who is trash talking everyone and everything at the top of his lungs,honking up a storm while he blows his nose into a napkin. Pretty soon he's making crude suggestive remarks to your lady and disparaging remarks about you. You politely tell him you are having a private conversation and to please move on. He moves on from table to table complaining about the food, the service, the prices, and the crappy music that you selected from the jukebox.

The waiter approaches your table to take your dinner order and about that time this guy nails the waiter in the back with a chicken bone to get his attention and starts complaining that he's wants to order dessert NOW.

The waiter goes to the manager asking that they throw the bum out, but the manager says "Oh no if we do that we'll lose the $10.00 in dessert he's going to order". About this time you realize that if you stay you'll have to put up with this bum because management isn't going to resolve the problem, so being the polite folks you are you make an excuse to the waiter why you can't stay (babysitter is sick or something) and then you head for the diner down the road

Now management has salvaged a $10.00 dessert order but lost a $40.00 dinner order

You wanted an analogy, there you go.
