Suppose that a friend asks you to drive him to the airport this weekend so he can catch a flight. He pays you for the gas used driving to the airport, and for the cost of parking the car at the airport while you help him in with his bags. He then declares that you are now "even," since he has fully compensated you for any costs you incurred in helping him get to his flight. From your perspective, what aspects of the "price" of taking your friend to the airport has he omitted?

What will be an ideal response?


The full sacrifice of taking the friend to the airport would also include the cost of your time driving to and from the airport and the gas you'll have to use getting back home.
