A while back, I posted an add on Craigslist - free firewood, come get it. I had dropped six trees, and I wanted them gone. A few days later, some kid came by, took everything, and cleaned up after himself. Why can't everyone be like that?
Fast forward to today. I get a text from some guy...
A-hole - do you have any firewood left?
Me - No, all gone sorry.
A-hole - Man, I'm having a bonfire tonight and I really need some.
Me - I can drop a tree if you want to cut it up and haul it.
A-hole - I'll have to find a chainsaw, all I have is a hand saw.
Me - Tell you what, I'll drop it, cut it up, and you haul it. I really don't want to drop it unless you're going to get it.
A-hole - Man, that's really nice of you. I'll be there in just a few minutes!
Want to guess who didn't show up? Instead of running hard pipe for my air compressor, I decided to be nice and help this guy out. Now, I have a tree in my yard that I'll have to clean up, and still have to run air lines.
I hate people.
