What was your most ungrateful experience?
339875
I used to spend time working with homeless in an urban area.  I met one young guy named David and gave him my phone number saying if he ever needed a meal to give me a call and I'd drop whatever to come down and buy him a meal.  \n\nNot too long after that David called and took me up on the offer.  I took him to a medium priced restaurant and we were given menus.  In the course of time we ordered and I happened to order first.  I ordered something around $10 and thought he would do the same.  He ordered the most expensive steak on the menu.  \n\nThen once we started eating he found the steak wasn't cooked to his preference and he made a big scene about it.  It was a bit annoying.  I don't recall him ever thanking me or calling me again.\n\nIn the end I did learn a lesson and it wasn't what I expected.  In retrospect I was impressed that David took me at my word and actually tested my generosity.  I had put no limits on what I offered him.  I had my own unspoken expectations of how much he should spend but he didn't adhere to those.  \n\nI learned that part of the reason I was generous was that I may be thanked and shown gratitude.  I discovered a little selfishness in my own generosity.  \n\nI guess the attitude I would like to develop is to be kind or generous because it's the pure thing to do, not for what I get in return.

I went out to dinner with a guy who got extremely drunk.  He got up and started singing "Some Enchanted Evening" in the middle of the restaurant,  and was so screwed up he fell on top of the table next to us.  I was stupid enough to drive him home (even after that stunt), and he took all his clothes off in the car and threw them out the window.  \n(I swear to G*d I am *not* making this up).  When I got him to his house I (literally) kicked his a*s out of my car and left him on his front lawn naked as a jaybird.  Needless to say that was our first and last date!

Hi-Pretty good.  Just a few minor changes: \n\nThe most embarrassing experience I have ever encountered was when I once went out for dinner without taking money. One day, I had a dinner with a man. I was dressed up for the occasion but didn't take any money. We had a really good time. Unfortunately, he received an emergency call and had to leave immediately.  After he left, I realized I had no money to pay for the bill and didn't know what to do.  Finally, I decided to call my father to help me, and ever since then I've always carried money with me.

I got fired from Hardee's once, that's pretty bad, felt like a loser. 18yr old\n\nMy failed marriage, although that was a much needed life lesson, since it made me a much stronger person.  I'm the most mellow person in the world now and nothing bothers me. 27 yrs old.\n\nThis is petty, but I got a dog, and cannot train it for the life of me.  32 yrs old.

My worst job experience would take me two days to type up...lol.  But, to make a long story short, I was just out of college for Medical Administration/Assistant and was called by a temp agency to go take "Meeting Minutes" at a Tribe Council meeting for a local group of Native Americans.  \n\nThey DID NOT want me there.  The woman who normally took them was a Native American and they were resentful of everything I did.  They made me sit in a corner for hours until after they had their lunch and did their traditions, then when it came time for the meeting which took place in a huge hall (wedding receptions take place here), they made me repeat everything I wrote down and yelled at me because I wasn't talking loud enough, made me come up to the front of the hall and "yell" the notes out and if I used one word wrong they were very angry.  I was using shorthand and at one point a woman pulled the notebook out of my hand and ridiculed me for not being able to read my own writing because at this point I was choked up and could not repeat esp. loud enough for everyone to hear......ahhhhh.  I still have nightmares.

My BOSS!  The jerk who got mad at me this morning because I went to the restroom and wasn't there to pick up his phone call, the jerk who yelled at me for not sending him the e-mail he requested (and then I found the e-mail on his inbox unread half hour later) and finally...the guy that just asked me if we got a fax from his doctor when I had given it to him (in hands) less than 20 minutes ago.\nIf I could...I would hack into his eharmony.com account and change his profile from "charming gentleman" to "old pervert"!

I've done plenty of stupid things for my ex. But I'll have to say the STUPIDEST was to attend a rave surrounded by millions of e-droppers, pot-smoking loser crowds, just so I could be with him, make sure he's not doing anything stupid. But he ended up doing the same thing all his loser friends were doing. BIG MISTAKE in attending.

Well, something like that happened to me yours ago. Foolish me, did nothing about it, much to my eternal regret.  Of course it's your call, but perhaps you will enjoy and cherish the experience.

The nicest thing anyone has done was an offer from a dear friend of mine to pick me up in Portland Oregon from Salt lake Utah and drive me to my daughters funeral in Los Angeles.  So i wouldn't be alone and would have someone to process the grief with.  I couldn;t take her kind offer because I knew it was something I had to do alone.   \n\nThe worst thing is the man that was responsible for her death (he didnt kill her I hope anyway but if I hadnt known him it wouldnt have happened which is far to complex to explain here)  made sure I was homeless broke my nose several times and tried to kill me, after taking all my cats .  I was in love with him and waited for twelve years for him to show up. He showed up five years after her funeral, I had already waited seven for him then. That was six years ago.

I hated an ex-boss-\nHe thought that since I was young/blonde/female I was stupid and he hated the fact that I was intelligent and not home barefoot and pregnant where "women belong".\n\nTo get back instead of slapping him, I had to book his flight from Ohio to Japan (10 hours) - when I booked it I requested an aisle seat in Coach (please note he is an exec.used to flying in 1st class), with a vegetarian meal, and I made it clear to the booking agent that he was a "recovering alcoholic" and that he was NOT to have any alcoholic beverages on the plane no matter how irate he got....\nNeedless to say when he landed the next morning he called me an asked why his seat had all these stipulations- I played dumb blonde- LOL- He so deserved it!

One time I was driving to the store to buy some groceries and I was in a really REALLY bad mood. When I was walking into the store, an ederly woman was coming in  RIGHT behind me. And of course, i was grouchy so I didn't even hold the door for her, and she had trouble getting in. So then I went to the produce got some apples, etc. And then I started to feel really bad about what I did to the lady. But I just continued to walk through store like a total.... well you know which word.... I went to the "self check-out" line and guess who was behind me.... The lady who I shut the door on. \n\nAfter I checked out my items, I waited outside for the elderly woman to get done with her groceries. As she came outside, I approached her and said " Excuse me ma'am, can I help you to your car?" The lady said yes so I proceeded to her car. As I loaded the groceries into her trunk, I saw tears rolling down the ladies cheeks. I immediately thought Oh shoot what have done to this poor lady. The lady then said "Oh sorry, it's just that my husband just died last week and it makes me so happy to have someone help me out."\nI then realized how much a I had made that ladies day.\n\nAs I was driving home, I thought that it doesn't hurt to just do one simple thing for someone, because even if it means nothing to you, it can mean the world to that person."
