I had to write the history of windows phone 7 development

I hate it when people ask me a favor and I have to do something that is not interesting to me at all. I cant understand their attitude. I am not asking them for favors like that. It is up to them to act how they want and I don^t want to influence their behavior in no way. I think that it is fair and that people should act like that in general. Thanks to this the world would be a better place, don^t you think? I hate such situations especially when they happen at my work. Someone asks me a favor that I don^t really want to make and he or she might be angry if I don^t do it. If the boss asks me for something then I don^t really have a choice. I have to do it. Otherwise I might be out of job soon. Recently I had a situation like that at work as I was asked to write a short history of windows phone 7 development that would be later placed on our official website. I don^t find this subject interesting and I didn^t really want to do it. Do you know what I mean? Since I was asked for it I have decided to do it eventually but I think that this should be performed by those who are responsible for it. You can^t ask random people for help in every situation. I think that if next time someone asks me about something similar to writing this windows phone 7 development history I will refuse this offer. How do you think, is it a good idea?
