Will work for food

No, not me. Joyce.

She's such a bleeding heart philanthropist sometimes! Volunteering to spend two weeks to take care of her friend's HUGE house and two dogs for a measly $300. Spending hours and hours and hours working on 1600 photos for a wedding shoot that she charged $900 for. Oh wait, that $900 is before spending $200 to develop some of the photos and almost spending another $200 to create contact sheets. Sigh...

She drives me up the wall with that behaviour sometimes.

But at the same time, that's what makes her so unique, so lovable, so Joyce.

I'm so different. I calculate the costs and profits of everything I do. As Evan puts it, I lead a "ruthless" life. So it's so nice, so heartwarming to know that there is someone somewhere out there who does things out of the goodness of theoir heart without regard to the financial (or otherwise) gain/loss.
