Today, I busted my ass to help this old lady move her stuff because she was going to a nursing home. I was told I would get paid. When I finished four hours later the lady took me to a room and told me to pick out anything in her little goody bag. I got a race car as payment. FML

And there was absolutely no way you could turn this story to attract girls?

Aww, that's not an FML. That's really cute and sweet. You're an asshole.

WTF is wrong with you people? He was told he would get paid. I'm 100% sure if you were told you'd get paid for helping someone move and ended up with after 4 hours of work was a racecar, you'd feel prettying ******* jipped and pissed. The fact that she is old is irrelevant. Again, this isn't a quick random act of kindness, this was taking 4 hours out of your day to help a complete stranger move and not getting paid after being told you were.

Saying "jipped" is racist, by the way. Comes from "gypped" as in "gypsy." Not a big deal here in the States, but if you ever visit Europe, you'd better be careful who's listening when you say that. Might as well walk into a Church's and say, "Hey, what's a niggah gotta do ta get some chicken 'round here?"

Who needs money when you can have a RACE CAR?!

#178. The fact that she is old is a very big factor. It tells us that she most likely doens't have much money, or many friends who are capable of helping her, if they are alive. Poor lady had to lie to someone to get help, it's only 4 hours, suck it up.

First off, old people live either from a very badly paid pension, or from their savings. It kind of sucks you can't do something for free for the elderly for once...

aw, she actually sounds like a cute, old lady. YDI though for being a greedy jerk. ever heard of community service? stop being the selfish douche that you are and be appreciative that you actually helped someone in need today.
