I found it irritating:
So a friend had asked me if I would help out at a local food bank the other morning. I wasn’t doing much then so I said yes.
Every Single Person who was broke enough (supposedly) to need help from the Food Bank had in their car either a $6 coffee from a large chain that rhymes with “Carbuck” or a large fountain drink. Every Single One of them.
If yer that broke that you need to beg food at the Food Bank (which gets their food from donations) then you can’t afford high dollar coffee and soft drinks.
Pick one. Broke or not.
Also, many of these folks were driving pretty nice rides as well.
I’m thinking the concept of “Poor ” is not what I thought it was.
I mentioned the expensive drinks to one of the leaders there and was told “Don’t Judge”.
But I WILL judge. I was volunteering my time to help people less well off than I am. I.E. “Poor”. These folks weren’t acting Poor, nor were they volunteering….they just wanted the free food. .
They were just taking.
Last time I volunteer for something like this.
I’m not sure I can justify any additional donations, either, to be honest.
