But, hon, you didn't present this as you asking for help in advance and them agreeing to it! This came across as you presuming on their help. That's why you got such negative feedback.
FWIW when friends ask in advance for my help I'll go out of my way to be helpful, but if they "volunteer" me I dig in my heels. I'll bet lots feel as I do.
