what happens when you do something good?
A homeless man sitting in front of a Tim hortons drive thru asking for some food on a peice of cardboard me thinking hey Ill get him a coffee and a bagel with cream cheese. I get out of my car try to give him what I bought he begins to scream at me I cant eat that sh** I see on his card board in small print ,can only eat blah blah blah. I felt like say what the f**k are you doing in front of a Tim Hortons then a**hole theres a save on food over there. Never again. :mad: just venting but has this happened to anyone else?

Oh yes! I tried to give someone food from a restaurant but as it turned out he would rather CASH! (I'm thinking booze & ciggarettes??)0

Maybe he's on a diet.0

Yeah, I saw a young guy with a sign out front of McDonalds a few years back. Bought him a BLT bagel, he then proceeded to tell me he doesn't like bagels!!!!! That killed my charity....0

Got dirty looks a few times from them like "ths isn't what I wanted"0 -

"You'll eat what I say you'll eat!"
No, seriously, it can't be easy to be homeless. If I give, I give cash so they can choose to spend it on what is most important to them. Them. Not me. I do what I can and hope for the best. Even if it is a pint of MD 20/20 or a pack of smokes, I can only hope I helped make that person's day brighter.0 -
Just today I gave a homeless man all of our left over lunch. There was a whole salad, a cup of soup and some mac n cheese. He was extremely grateful and thanked me a bunch. Point is... there are asshats out there but keep doing good things. Dont let it discourage you. :flowerforyou:0

Lol - that's awesome! I would have laughed.
Then run him over0 -
I once ran into a parent of one of my students outside a local grocery store asking for money. I live 20 km away from the school in another district. I know she drives a Prius, goes on holidays to Europe, and her grade 8 son has an iPhone. Here I am on a budget, I can't afford a cell phone or cable, and she's begging!0
