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?

"Can I pick up that piece of paper?"
Can I pick up that piece of paper? Here I am, brain the size of a planet and they ask me to pick up that piece of paper. Call that job satisfaction, cos I don't. And me with this terrible pain in all the diodes down my left side.

I'm not getting you down, am I?

So I am there, a USMC Intel Officer. We have some Rangers pinned down and I am heading up the closest assault team of Marines in that sector.

I call in on the UN net and request support. Two Bradley fighting vehicles. Light armored support at BEST.

Thats all the tanks I got. UN bastards.

Sorry, I know its already bindun, I just wanted to throw my helmet into the ring.

Believe it or not, I get a fair amount of that as well, being a single father. Fortunately they are now in their teens, so I can put some of the load onto them and make them more self-sufficient. I still cook dinner and do a lot of the stuff around the house in addition to working full time, but it's not as bad as it once was. And now that my girlfriend lives with me, it's better still.

I'd say you need to get your kids doing a few things- even at the age of 8 they can do their own laundry, for instance. Mine did. And if your husband is adding to the load, twat him for me, as he sounds like a git.

Slave labour
I am a stay at home mum (housewife, for the uninitiated).

What thanks do I get for that? Constant reminders that I will be returning to work when our offspring starts school and questions about what is for dinner and where the clean underwear is. Oh no, don't thank me for giving our child the best start in life, sacrificing my sanity and working like a horse for nothing more than the joy of changing nappies and cooking fish fingers. That would be just wrong.

I think we should have a vote-o-meter to end poor QOTWs early.

I'll accept your thanks by Gaz :o)
