Pro tip: If you ask someone for a favor, try not to overstay your welcome. There is no reason to make them regret ever agreeing to help you out, especially if you plan on seeing that person again. What's the problem with asking for the favor, getting it done, saying thank you, and calling it a day? Why do some people feel the need to take more than they were given?
