That said there is one part of what you posted, which while I give you credit for honesty, I don't put ANY credence in your complaints whatsoever. You don't like manul labor and sweating then don't do it. Especially in a situation where you might not be compenstaed for doing it when there is no requirement to do so. Simple as that. A tip for hleping out isn't an unreasonable expectation in that situation though not a requirement. That said, saying that you don't like manuel labor or sweating in no way makes it any greater "sacrifice" on your behalf.

i didn't expect anyone to take it as a greater "sacrifice" because I said that, one of the main reasons I did do it is because a friend of 10 years that works there was in a bind and needed someone to help out....I didn't really did it because of the "sacrifice" aspect, but more of the favor aspect...but even with doing the favor, she does work there so I at least didn't expect to get hit with a bill including everyones drinks from that area I was working in, then get brushed off by her when I brought it up

the biggest issue I had with the people there is the total lack of care they gave me for doing the things I did, I honestly could have cared less about money or free drinks, all though that would have been nice, it was the total brush off I got at the end of the evening when everything was said and done.....and then when I did bring up some things to our friends who happens to work there, her boyfriend steps up in my face and tells me "don't talk to her like that"

the biggest let down was our friend, who in the end showed her true colors, and that is what lets me down the most and angers me the most, is that no matter where when or how, friends ALWAYS let you down

there is so much more to it, and the part where I was asked to help was just a 1/10 of the evening, but every single thing built up to a huge crappy night....it was hundreds of little things that led to the final meltdown

it is over though, and while my wife is still majorly upset and I am a little peeved, that night is gone and is just memory, which I am glad....and I/we can move on and forget about it
