• People ALWAYS ask me for my work.

Ok I know school rant threads aren't usually a good idea... but it's seriously annoying me and I just need some advice. Plus it's more just about my friends, not me ranting about school. First off, I'm not that smart. I just try really hard to get a decent grade. Now whenever people see me make one A on a test they freak out and assume I'm a genius and ask for help. That's fine. So I help whoever needs help then it's all good. This keeps going on (which doesn't bother me) but eventually it just turned into "Can I copy your work?" So a few friends I let copy a couple times and then I realized I was working too hard to just let people copy. So I said "no" for once and this person freaks out and keeps begging me all day. The second time this really popular chick (whore, who I've never even talked to) asks me and I say no and she stares at me in shock. Then one of my friends ask and I tell him I'm really not in the mood to let people copy and he calls me a faggot. The main thing that made me think about it is that some person (who I thought I was friends with) ignored my existence when I said hi to them. Then later that day when they asked yo copy and I said "No" they said "Wow, I thought we were friends." :saddowns: I sort of feel bad...should I keep telling people no or just let it go? Also another reason I don't want to is because a teacher chewed me out for an hour when she thought let people copy but I didn't.
Don't be a whore, they're only using you.
Personally, I think it's really strong of you to not let people copy off of you. Seriously, I'm in a bunch of Advanced Placement classes, and it pisses me off to see the considered brightest kids blatantly cheating. Keep on fighting the power, Seven.
Start charging $$$
Charge money, or stop.
Let them copy you, but make sure everything you write is wrong. That will work.
Don't let the dicks copy. If they call you a faggot for not helping them to throw away their education, should you really hang out with them? And keep on working hard.

Way to get people to dislike you. You've filled the nerd niche, learn to love it.
Let the big guys copy you, the other faggots can piss off. Don't wanna get yourself beaten up
Never be polite to people at your expense, there are very few people who would do the same for you.

To put this in perspective: the OP is a 14 year old 8th grader.
They're not much of a friend then.
[QUOTE=pyrofiliac;21886512]To put this in perspective: the OP is a 14 year old 8th grader.[/QUOTE] Oh good I thought he was a 13 year old 7th grader. This is much better.
They aren't your friends if they're only using you for good grades. Ditch 'em and find some real friends.
I had the same happen to me at school years ago. Not as serious as you but people asked me for my homework so they could copy it. I usually let them since I knew that they were gonna fuck up in the exam. I'd never do any extra work just so people could leech of me but if they want to copy my homework, whatever. It's their own personal hell when the exam comes. Also, you shouldn't care about petty insults like people calling you a faggot or whatever. They're just frustrated. Don't feel bad. You were doing them a favour and now that doing that favour has turned bothersome for you and you stopped, they're whining because they got used to the easy way.

Don't wanna get yourself beaten up[/QUOTE] I don't really have to worry about that..(not being cocky or anything but the only kid in the class who could is my friend). Anyways I'm just going to continue saying no. I just kind of feel like I'm being a jerk... even though I doubt I really am.
Why didn't you get a deal with the whore? Homework for whatever dirty deed you need done to your young wiener.

[QUOTE=Ninja_Duck;21886795]Why didn't you get a deal with the whore? Homework for whatever dirty deed you need done to your young wiener.[/QUOTE] This. You should also charge money instead of saying no.
Jesus Christ, stop being such a dick. Just let them copy it.
If they really don't want to do the homework, why don't they just write down numbers at random. I don't know many teachers that collect homework for a grade.
I hate it when people ask to copy my work so all I say is "Oh you don't want to copy off of me, I don't know what I am doing and just wrote down random stuff" :v:
[QUOTE=Trooper34;21886906]This. You should also charge money instead of saying no.[/QUOTE] Actually this might be a good alternative. But think about the consequences if he got caught.

You're not being a jerk. If he has a problem with you not letting him copy your work, then you need to tell him what's what. Not doing work is HIS problem, and you're not his personal slave. If he stays bitter like an immature child, then forget him. Choose your friends wisely.
[QUOTE=Revolutionary;21886966]Actually this might be a good alternative. But think about the consequences if he got caught.[/QUOTE] If I were him and I got caught, I would give them some bullshit excuse like "I'm just their paid tutor" or something like that, Might work, might not.
Make 2. 1 paper has you right answers and correct information while the other has completely wrong information and answers.
I have a question for you OP. What is so damaging about letting someone copy off of your work? Why so you care?
I get asked that all the time. I fucking hate being a nerdy person. :smith:
