I've done multiple system restores/formats for people who are going to pay a hundred or so bucks to have someone else do it(of course, i never take any money). I'm almost like a free computer support line for anyone that I know who has computer issues.
For a more specific story, when I was growing up my Dad and my two brothers used to have to shovel the snow out of our driveway. Every time we shoveled our drive, we would also shovel the drives of 3 of our neighbors(a widowed lady, and two elderly couples). They would always come out and try to pay us, but of course we wouldn't take it. Most of the time we ended up getting cookies or something. One of the elderly guys would always try to come out and help us(I think he felt bad that we wouldn't let him pay), so we always made it a goal to try to have his driveway done before he could get outside to help! He didn't need to be out in the cold!
I've really liked this thread, surely more people have stories
