Questions, then the linesWhat does money was tight mean?
It means the speaker had little spare money.
Is busybody insulting?
Usually mildly; it describes someone who interferes in other people’s affairs.
What does I am a dead man mean?
It is an exaggeration meaning the speaker expects severe trouble.
Why repeat 8:00?
The repetition turns a small delay into a lesson about control and detail.
