He informs me the game as cancelled, but he has my check. All I needed to do was help him set up for volleyball which had a game in a few hours.

It first I thought he was joking....nope. I'm in full uniform mind you.

I did it as I was already there and $50 for 5 minutes worth of work. But the principle behind it almost made me tell him to piss up a rope.

This ought to be interesting. What would you have done?

Game cancelled I show up. I should get paid since I set aside time.

My choice tell him to go jump or help him set up the net and be on my way in 5 minutes or so. I'm helping him set up the net. Hey he wants to pay me $50.00 for 5 minutes of work no problem. That being said I understand why you felt the way you did.
