This is a question And that's the thanks I got

On getting screwed over by people for whom you were doing a favour:

I spent several weeks helping my best friend - a complete layabout - with his A-Level computer science project so he wouldn't fail his course. In the end, he did so little work I actually ended up doing the whole thing for him in a half-term week I should really have spent revising for my own exams.

I got back to college to find that while I was hunched over a red-hot BBC Micro, he had spent the week screwing my girlfriend.

Then he didn't bother sitting the exam because "I'm going to fail anyway".

And that's the thanks I got. How have you been screwed over whilst doing someone a favour?

Moron at Uni
And that's the thanks I got for being 1st...

:-P

On topic - there was a guy who was on my course at Uni - for the first while he seemed ok, nice guy, friendly & all but after a while it became clear that he as a proper freeloader....

If you were working with him in a group, he'd blatantly do nothing for the whole piece so you'd end up having to do his work for him so it didn't bring your grades down.

If it was an individual piece, he'd ask to "check yours over"

We fell for this for ages until the final piece when we all refused to work with him as we knew what an arse he'd been for the whole course.

He got stroppy and moaned at us all - overlooking the fact that we'd all carried him this far.

I'll not mention his name just now - I'll edit it in later :o)
