One day while pulling out of an arbys drive thru a guy was standing under an arbys sign with a piece of cardboard. On it was something about him not having money for food. The thing that is…the sign above him posted by arbys says, “We’re hiring! Minimum wage.” I know min. wage is crap but its enough to get decent clothes and maybe a decent place to live. Some fast food places won’t hire homeless people but he could have still tried to ask, it wouldn’t have hurt to try. Hell, out here people are friendly folk and would probably help him find a place to live, maybe even give him a lift to and from work. ---

S’okay, **broys** , mistakes happen. I’ll go ahead and lock this off so the thread doesn’t grow any larger. Remember, you can always drop a quickie email to the forum mods to let them know when a “whoops” happens. Makes a fast, easy way to get the problem solved. TVeblen Moderator, IMHO
