And that's the thanks I gotOn 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?

Co-WorkersWhile doing my normal work duties during a normal day at the office, I was asked by a fellow co-worker to please help her with some account mailings that needed to get in the mail by the end of the business day. Being the normally kind hearted person who hates to see others wallow in piles of work, I agreed to help her with her mailing project. She brought me part of the project which consisted of company checks and an accounting sheet which had to be folded and sealed in the proper envelopes, postage being printed on each envelope and copies of the checks and accounting sheets that needed to be stapled together.
I set all my duties to the side put my nose to the grind-stone and completed most of the project when she came bounding down from her office, logged out on the time clock and left for the day, an hour early.
I found out after she left that she did NONE of the project, had instead given it all to me, screwed off the entire day and on top of it all left early, while I was still doing her project.
