When you try to do something nice, and your efforts backfire, makes you wonder why you tried, huh?
I came into 2 extra tickets for a car event. I had several PM's here asking for them, and a couple non-CR friends ask for one. I did what seemed right...offer 1 to each of the first 2 people that asked.
Person #2 showed up when discussed, picked up his ticket, politely asked if I had another spare, but I did not. Part ways, go to show Saturday, have a good day of free food and beer. Took a video of a CR purple S10 breaking (looked like it from the tower - hope it's not too bad), etc.
Person #1 was a no-show Saturday, but did call and say he would get the ticket the next day. So, the next day - today - comes and go, and he's a no-show... again. Call him; no answer.
A $25 ticket wasted. Seems simple enough: "Thanks, but something came up" would have handled it. No PM. No call.
It could have went to someone who would have appreciated it.
End rant, enjoy your surfing.
