Yes. I mean, look at how much James Bond gets laid and tell me it's not cushy.

@Drenius IIRC, don't you have a government job?

If I was AJ Id hate RD too, lazing her days away with her cushy government job while she toils for hours on end to make ends meet.
Yeah, how dare she use her exceptional skill-set, acquired through long years of hard work, to build a comfortable life for herself.

The reason she gets to sleep so much is because she's fast enough to do her entire job in a few minutes.

@ crowlover: I do. Not particularly cushy as we don't have a budget for the fiscal year and my office has a 9 million dollar budget shortfall.

Obviously it's her employer's fault for not giving her more work to do.

Does anypony else find the fact that Rainbow Dash was so aggressive about helping the Apples in Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 to be very heart-warming? It really is one of the show's better moments, in my opinion, seeing these rivals working together.

She was also the most insistent about getting AJ back in The Last Roundup.

Eeyup. RD gets the short end of the stick a lot of times, but she does have some great moments if you know where to look. I mean, look at the start of SSCS 6 K. Not only does she go to the trouble of waking Fluttershy up to get in line, but she lets FS go first.
And yeah, if you only laze around because you've trained yourself well enough to be able to do your job more efficiently, I can't complain about it.

Well of course, if she didn't get AJ back she'd have to turn her aggression on to somepony else, and something tells me Rarity would not appreciate it.

Hey, does the 'Neutral' trait in character alignment mean that you have both Lawful and Chaotic traits, or neither?

I agree with that from experience (in school, of course).

I thought RD was in charge of the weather team in Ponyville.
She is, but outside of special occasions like storms, tornadoes, and winter wrap up, Rainbow seems to handle it all herself.
Other reason she sleeps so much: because she tires herself out with all her training.

@Gex, Depends on how you interpret it, Neutral either mains maintaining balance or being absent of the other two traits.

Nah, RD really has a bond with AJ that goes beyond petty feuds. When things get intense, they make a fantastic team. Two strong personalities that are too much alike, and too different, not to be simultaneously friends and rivals. Together, they balance out their flaws.
That, my friends, is true friendship.

I love you Octavia.
However, the neck and strings on your cello don't line up with the center of the instrument. In fact, that instrument is all sorts of fubar. A fine musician such as yourself should know better than to be seen in the same room with that cello.

Without AJ, RD wouldnt have any other local athlete to compare herself to and strive to best?
She does have the Wonderbolts to measure up against but they arent exactly local.
