Jordan: “If a homeless man can ask for spare change he can say welcome to McDonald’s”

[Maxine Shaw]

But I only give spare change to black women asking. White men

Reminds me of that joke Chris Rock made about why his mom wouldn't give change to homeless white people: "Well, there's just no reason for that!"

A lot of people in this thread assuming the homeless person is of the darker complexion

I agree with this sentiment. It happened to me.

I was homeless early in my 20s. Napping on couches and sometimes park benches. How I rose up was having the discipline to go to the labor yards at 4am so I could be one of the first in line, being a hard worker on the jobsites I went to, getting steady work, and eventually stacking the money to get an affordable weekly hotel room. Got a nice outfit for interviews, and went to a job fair at a fast food place that hired on the spot. Fast food was my choice cause I knew it would cut down on food expenses.

Then I got a second job at another fast food spot. Stayed working a third job on my one day off at the labor yards. By the end of the year, I was in a new car, decent place with 3gs saved up after expenses. Before long I upgraded my skills/job position and was partying down in Miami on my days off (4 hr drive from central fla)

Too many people are homeless because they have addictions or fukked up attitudes that makes no one want to associate with them. Some homeless people aren't even homeless, panhandling is a form of income for them. Too many people pat themselves on the back cause they gave spare change to someone, when all they doing is feeding an addiction, and enforcing the belief that begging is easier than working. Not to mention, if u live in an area with a sizeable homeless population, people give them food and in return said homeless person will take 2 bites and throw the rest on the ground, cause that's not what they wanted.

If u want to do something for the homeless, we need a change in the social structure of our society, and minimum wage needs to keep pace with inflation. It makes no sense, I work for a company owned by a millionaire who feeds the homeless at certain events, but turns around and is burning out his employees cause he won't hire anyone for more than minimum wage, and as managers we don't get compensated for being short staffed. I have literally seen employees sleeping in their cars or sharing living rooms cause their pay is out of wack with cost of living. I mean, stop feeding the homeless and start paying your underpaid borderline homeless workers so they don't end up homeless you fukking jackasses.

I agree with Mike. Stop begging, go to work and reap the rewards. Pay your employees properly so one week missed from work isn't life or death. Defund the military, let's establish a social safety net so a rough time in someone's life doesn't put them on the street.

Congrats to your come up

Where the fukk is the lie?

Hes assuming a person capable of asking for help is equipped to hold a job. That might not be a lie in all instances, but to act like fast wood workers are essentially hold the same mental aptitude as a random bum on the streets with deep psychological issues is a terrible leap to make. Its crazy disrespectful to people working those jobs. He has no idea why the person on the streets you are helping is there. But it makes him feel good to disrespect those folks.

 

[that guy]

You have no clue what you are talking about. You said-

Which is wrong because the majority of people who are on the street are NOT mentally ill. So theres no "usually" to it. Many of them are mentally ill but most are not. Thats why you got a definitive "wrong" as a reply.

You said “At this point(in major cities), with the exception of a few places, other than being mentally ill, you’re choosing to be on the street”

I never said most people on the street are mentally ill. I said people who choose to be on the street are usually mentally ill. Reading comprehension is fundamental.

And people who choose to be on the street are NOT usually mentally ill.
How you read your own quote and still cant read? What part of this are you not understanding? You keep doubling down on being wrong as fukk. Again, most people (most and usually are hand in hand as you are using it) who are choosing to be on the street are NOT mentally ill. You just a dumb ass nikka. I understand now.

Funny is that you were spewing in your original post calling people who won't give to the homeless conservative like a Votep Fake Militant. The irony

When you ready to empty your pockets for the pandhandlers let me know

I'm not sure why McDonalds jobs are treated as the ground-floor of employment in the United States.

Considering they involve drug tests, are at-will employment jobs that will fire you at a moments notice, don't provide any labor protections, are commonly understaffed, and aren't that easy to get.

The average admin job in a moderately sized corporation is far easier and more forgiving than a job at McDonalds.

And what is a homeless person supposed to do at McDonalds exactly? Apply for the job (with no address), provide references, do the screening, do the drug test, get hired, and then work for three weeks straight without a paycheck while being a model employee?

So they should just beg on the street for change after getting off work or wander around and hope they don't get a vagrancy or loitering charge that would lead to them getting fired?

All so when they get paid their paycheck is barely enough to cover the cheapest possible housing in a low-income area, which won't actually rent to them unless they have previous housing references, good credit, or enough money for two months rent?

 

[EndDomination]

There are resources available. At this point(in major cities), with the exception of a few places, other than being mentally ill, you’re choosing to be on the street.

Not that easy. The resources can *potentially* help out, but they basically require perfection from the person to ensure one can successfully transition from being homeless to being housed and gainfully employed.

If this hypothetical homeless person lacks the habits to keep a damn fast food job, they’d lose the house as fast as they’d get it. Most of these people are their own worst enemies, with few exceptions.

It's definitely more complex than this.
