How often does your helping hand get smacked with a ruler by the person or people you are helping, especially for free?

One of the most important lessons of Christianity is that people frequently will rebel against those things which are good for them. Starting in Genesis 3, this is a reoccurring theme throughout the Bible. If it were automatic for people to be thankful towards those who help them, we wouldn't have a proverb about it (Don't bite the hand that feeds you).
