Good Samaritan Put to the test
 

So I am outside raking leaves and the old lady across the street comes over...she's an 80 year old widow.

She has a ton of leaves and offers me $2 to rake her whole yard for her...

what is your play/response?

"Sorry Grandma, I don't get out of bed for less than a c-note."

or keep raking and pretend to break your back, fall down screaming

"ohhh, my back!! my neck!! my neck and my back!!"

Damn that sucks, I'd probably tell her to keep the $2 and just do it for her. I certainly wouldn't enjoy this bit of charity/guilt trip though.

I come inside and ask OOT what to do.

Is she still waiting in your yard?

Rake the leaves in exchange for one long learned life lesson
