OK so by some quirk of nature you are diving at 100 fsw with an auditor from the IRS who just happens to be auditing your taxes. Hey I did say a quirk of nature! All of a sudden he goes OOA, will you or better yet would you share air? Being tax time makes you wonder about these things!!
Well, I would probably give him air as I am Canadian, but if a Canadian tax auditor were OOA next to me... I still probably would. I have managed to buy most of my gear either used or under the table, so...
Honest... I ran out of gas. I... I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood. Locusts! IT WASN'T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!
well, If it were in Australia, It COULD be my cousin, through she mainly audits the Aussie Government rather than the taxpayer now. If it were in NZ, hell yeah, I want my refund!

I would definitely supply air to an out-of-air IRS agent, particularly if they were as cute as the young woman that did my field audit.
I was audited last year. The whole process took almost a year and included a visit to my home by the IRS for a field audit. My returns were squeaky clean. Although the agent went off on several tangents besides the initial questions, the end result was no change to my returns at all.
I got the distinct impression that they were dragging out the process so they could point to a huge number of "audits in process" to justify their staffing levels.
