OK, so I was giving away something on Craigslist the other day and I got a whole bunch of e-mails. This didn't surprise me cause hey, its free. who doesn't want free stuff. I offered to meet people downtown if they wanted or they would have to come pick it up in Crystal City. Some people said they wanted it and then backed out for some reason or another. But some of these people were askin me to like meet them 20-30 min from my place. I'm like I'm not gonna drive an hour out of my way to give you something FREE. I hate to be a dick to people that don't deserve it but these people are asking me to take a lot of my time to give them something for free. The way I look at it is that I am doing them a favor by offering something for them that they can use. I could sell it, I could throw it out. But no, I am trying to help someone else out and give them something that I don't need anymore. Would it be that hard for them to come meet me in downtown. I might add that downtown is totally out of my way home, but its not too far out of my way, if its close to the metro its cool. I don't mind going a few min out of my way during my commute, but to drive like 40 min isn't worth it to me - id rahter throw it out. ok anyway thats all I got.
If someone is giving something out for free on Craigslist don't expect them to do you a favor to deliever it to you. They are already doing you a favor by giving it out for free.
Im kinda drunk so this post prob makes no sense and has a lot of typos.
