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?

Nooooo, Don't Click 'I Like This'......I've had to delete my offering in this QOTW. It was basically about my fresher-than-fresh discovery that my once-trusted employers have in fact been playing me for a chump for some time now. My reaction as recorded in my deleted post was characteristically ascerbic.
Only thing is, so many folks clicked 'I Like This' that it turned up at the bottom of my personal 'best of' page. That was a bit too close to the surface for comfort. I don't want to get fired before I have the chance to tell them to shove it, right? :)
That said, thanks to all those who GAZzed me on the topic to share the pain and offer sage advice. Appreciated - you've helped me feel a lot better about it.
...and that's the (honest and heartfelt) thanks YOU get ;)
