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?

Hmm
I object - all these puns would have been repeated anyway - who reads the 1st few pages towards the end of the week anyway??

Thanks - that's just great

(just to keep it on topic)

consider yourselves reprimanded
If you hadn't deleted all these bad puns that were made at the beginning of this weeks qotw then they wouldn't have been repeated now.

I dont like being deleted. I have issues with self-esteem.

Rob trawls these hallowed pages
all day (well, after lunch) every day.
And what do we do to thank him?
We post mediocre puns and moaning, all for free.
For shame.
He should pay us for this shit.

stopped an attack
i happened to be walking home from my friends house and i seen a lad getting jumped by a gang of about six lads all around the age of 7 i decided to stop it after all what is a bunch 7 year old going to do,i intervened which led to the gang walking off shouting insults at me i walked over to lad on floor who was crying asked if he was ok and the bastard told me to fuck off and to die as i apparently would make him the victim of bullying in school the next because he though in his undeveloped head that it looked like he had not stood up for himself. i felt sorry for him for a second, then realized i had seen that little shit before he was the lad that used to bully my mates little brother so i punched the little bastard in both arms i made sure no one was around to see then i walked off smugly hoping he was like all the other kids in the area and didnt have a father or older brother to batter me. (i was 15 at the time by the way i don't want you to picture a 40 year old man abusing a child even though that would be very funny especially if he was wearing a clown suit)

Law? Not there
I was going to visit a mate who lives in the somewhat ironically named village of Law, in Lanarkshire. Driving up the main drag, obeying the speed limit I drove past an old bloke who was walking down the pavement. Totally unprompted, he turned to me, stepped to the edge of the pavement and gave a very prominent V-sign right up to my windscreen.

And that's the thanks I got for minding my own business in Law.

All right, it's not that funny, but at least it's within the spirit of the question!!

Think I'll run the old bastard down if I see him again. That'll teach him. Oh wait, that was another QotW...

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 ;)

A tree trunk of radius 2 feet and height 4 feet has enough volume that, if pulped, would provide enough wood for 75.3982237 two-by-fours, assuming they were 1 inch thick.

That's how many planks you'll get.
