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?

A bit off topic but not much.
Work for a company over 10 years, work hard to progress up the levels. Company buys a similar company and decides to bring parity between the two. Suddenly your reward is a pay freeze with no sign of a raise for 3 or 4 years whilst people two levels below you without your knowledge or experience are raised to your level without working for it.

We've slogged our guts our for that bunch of cunts and actually thought there was some appreciation of it. Nope, not a bit of it.

Bitter? You bet. Bitter? Can't afford it anymore.
