Over the top today!!...this guy was standing at the street light that operates near a Home Depot that had a VERY visible sign that read:

HIRING


They must make SO much that it would be a cut in pay if they pumped gas or delivered the local paper.... WTF!// These people are either @#$$%^&# Lazy, have NO pride, OR//// I did some math ........extremely intelligent!! ????...

Think about this for a second:. ;

If a stop light changes about every 5 minutes, in an 8 hour shift...that would equal <roughly< 96 times. Do the math...I'd guess he's averaging $2.oo every Red light...granted there are slower times than others, BUT I'm sure the busier times make up for it. How does that make you feel? ...if he "worked" that street corner religiously for 150 days, (less than 1/2 a year)...he would GROSS, (because uncle Sam don't tax BUMS)...$28,800.

Don't get the wrong idea, I'm not badgering the unfortunate homeless people, or anyone who's "Out on their Luck" or having extremely hard times... I REALLY DO LIKE TO HELP PEOPLE,,,, but these guys (- and I say "guys" because I've ONLY seen men doing this, women must have better ways of making easy money )...but anyway...it's the guys that mope around stop-lights begging for money that slowly change our giving hearts...
