Default doing something that you really don't want to do...

If you were asked to help with something that you didnt want to do (example addressing wedding invitations, folding laundry etc ) would you do it correctly or mess it up on purpose so you wouldnt get asked to do it again.

I have a tendency of never doing things I am not good at. And evade taking responsibilities for matters like that. So if I would end up with having to do something, then I know people must be really desperate. And I will help according to the best of my abilities.

I used to always get stuck doing things I didn't want to do. I found it annoying because I didn't have the ability to say no to anyone asking me to help them with something. Now, I keep as few friends as possible close up.

It depends on who is doing the asking. If it is someone I really like or a close friend then I will do my very best. If it is someone who annoys me or is a pain then I probably would do a half a$$ed job. :P

I know it's not funny to YOU...but the thought of them not allowing you to talk at work is just hilarious to ME! That's the funniest thing I've heard!

It depends on the relationship I have with the person asking me for help.

To me there are 2 choices: I either do it properly, or I won't do it at all.
