Seriously are homeless people just super fucking lazy or what? Like i understand if you have a mental condition. Or you have no legs. Or there is an actual reason why you can't work. But i mean i see able bodied bums everyday. And i seriously think "why the fuck can't you just get a job?" Like i know this chick she is like 30 something. My sister was telling me how bad she feels for this chick because this chick is homeless. Her husband broke up with her kicked her out and wont give her money. I have met this bitch. She can walk. She can talk. She has two hands. Why would i feel sorry for her? I mean if i can get a job so can they. Its not even like you need to work at microsoft. I mean you can go get a job at mcdonalds and be living a better quality of life at least. And if you can't get a legit job then get some ambition and go make some money by and means necessary. I mean why are homeless people homeless? Why can't they get jobs? Just wondering if there is some reason that i am not seeing here. In which case i would take back everything i said.
This tends to be one of those subjects that I honestly am not sure about; I think it might be a mixture of unfortunate individuals and those who are just pussies and/or lazy. There are a lot of aspects that could lead one to succumbing to homelessness; such as hardcore drugs, abuse, etc. My friend was a social worker and ended up working with kids as young as 5 years old living on the street, because their parents literally brought them up that way. It's hard for me to believe that those children will know anything different as they get older unless they are somehow pulled off the street.
I'm sure there are some who are just lazy, and some who have real problems that prevent them from having jobs. I don't really feel like I'm in a position to judge them. I mean in the grand scheme of things, the only thing any of us do is fuck around for a while and then die.
Well yea everyone fucks around then dies. But not everyone asks other people who are fucking around for money. And its not even like i judge bums. Or i like hate them. I actually always give them money and shit if they don't look cracked out. If they do ill buy them a burger. But i mean i cant stand people who complain about how hard there life is. And about how they are homeless. When if they have the brain power to complain they have the brain power to get a fucking job. I know so many people who are "homeless" like my age and living off of there friends or there friends parents. And whining about how hard there life is. Like just get a job.
you're not on your own. i feel the same way. whenever i see a bum on the street or downtown or in the train it just disgusts me. no ambition no effort so why should we feel bad for them? i never give bums money, unless im drunk as fuck downtown and i have loose change then sure ill throw some coins at em
You can't just hate them, though. Life can go in any direction. One minute you can be a multi-millionaire, the next you could be homeless on the streets. Most of them are there because of addiction. Sure, it's their own fault, but we're only stupid humans. If people keep giving them money, then of course they are going to keep begging and feeding the addiction. Stop giving them stuff, then they will have to do something about it. Or just die. oh yeah, did someone say my name?
I personally know some crackheads who are like seriously cracked out but they aren't homeless. A lot of crackheads i know actually work construction. Or do carpentry. I honestly think that even if i was on crack i would still be able to support myself. And if i was so cracked out that i couldn't i still wouldn't be living on the streets. I would be robbing dealers all day for my medicine. Oh and yea i don't hate homeless people. I just hate people with no ambition.
Once homeless it can become almost impossible to find a job. Employers don't like to hire people with no address,worn dirty clothing, poor hygiene,etc. In this economy there are a large number of applicants for even fast food jobs, so who would YOU hire, a well dressed, clean,stable person or the bum?
Oh totally. I didn't mean every addict is homeless. I was an addict for many years (or still am according to anonymous followers) Eventually, for some people, they run out of places to stay. Use up all their friends, family, whatever. If you rob enough people, then people tend to avoid you. Those people that end up on the streets with nowhere to go for "home", are mostly there because they screwed over everyone they know. Now they feed off people they don't know. If those people would stop giving them change and feeling sorry, then maybe they would try harder. I agree that most are lazy by the way I like to TRY and stay neutral.
Why do you give a shit? If someone wants to be homeless what difference does it make? They're fed up with the system in some way, or have mental problems. It might sound crazy, but sometimes it's just easier for someone to give up everything that goes along with having a job and a house ect. and just live on the streets because they can just beg people like you for money and you will give it to them. Don't you think it's a bit ironic that you're complaining about homeless people being lazy and not getting a job and then in the next post admit to giving someone on the street money? We are all just trying to find they best way to cope with this life. Not everyone is going to go about it the same way.
Because u see it that way doesnt mean it's the way u think it is , if u look at it this way this is the land of opportunity but not every one has equal opportunity people sometimes get into bad situation weather by choice or by circumstance wat ever the reason don't judge the book by it's cover because today u have every thing tomorrow nothing , some ppl have friends n family to help them get on their feet others don't I was never homeless but came very close n I count my blessings n here in NYC rent is very very high so mc donalds n those type of jobs can only pay a small part if ur rent much less food transport clothes etc . Dnt hate on the have nots hate on da ppl dat have it all n dnt care hw they spend it will other HUMAN BEINGS struggle to get a bit to eat PS. Is that wat ur goin to tell a homeless kid on da streets who isn't even old enough to work . Some ppl r jus heartless n care only for their selves n love ones.
People are homeless cause they smoke weed. Apparently. But then again more people who smoke weed lead very successful lives, just we arent meant to know that.
And for the dummies that feel getting a job is easy News Flash MILLIONS of people r unemployed in America so wtf makes u think a bum gettin a job is goin to be easy , I swear common sence Aint so common smmfh.
It's hard to get a job when you got no address, no phone, no food, dirty clothes, and no alarm clock.
I really don't give a shit. I don't think about it a lot. And i'm not even really talking about the bums on the streets. I am talking about the ones i know. The ones who live for free but complain about how they cant find money to buy weed. I mean fuck if you want to be a bum then you do do you. But i mean don't complain about how you don't have any money and then in the very next sentence brag about how you have never had a job. And i always give homeless people money idc. I don't like being hungry so if i have two dollars and you ask me for one i'll give you one. I mean fuck if i got it and you don't even if you are a lazy piece of shit you can have some of mine. Honestly bro in america i am pretty much at the bottom of the food chain. I am a young black man. With a felony on my record and a case pending. My dads a drug dealer. Moms an alcy. Brothers is in jail (talk about a product of his enviroment) and my sisters work for nothing. So i understand the whole coming from nothing thing. Not having the best oppurunities in life. But even if i had zero opportunities in life i would never be homeless. How do i know? Because when i get low on cash i get a job. Its hard yes. But no its not impossible. In this economy anyone can find a job. and most if the sob stories you hear about people not being able to find work its because those people were rich as fuck. Partner in some big ass law firm. And now they don't wanna go back to the drawing board and start over so they live off there riches while they whine about the economy.
You know how easy it is to get at the very least most of those things? Maybe not an address. But a phone is what 15 dollars for a crappy virgin mobile? 25 dollars for unlimited calling also. You can get clean clothes/clean up. Idk what the places are called but they are all over my city. They give away free clothes. They let you shower. Some of them have food. Not like you are gonna be wearing designer clothing but you can find a few pairs of slacks and a few shirts and some ugly shoes. And you can put the address for the fucking ymca. Or you can say you are bouncing from house to house. Or just give any home address. My employers never drove up to my house.
Yeah because every employer wants to hire the reliable guy who floats couch to couch or lives at the Y.
When you go to places like jack in the box they don't care. I know homeless people from around downtown who have gotten jobs at fast food places. And how would they know the address was from the Y? If you don't wanna be upfront like i said throw down any address. Use anyones address they aren't gonna go check if you live there. You can just put down a friggin apartment building. Not having somewhere to live really doesn't matter all that much.
Shit I tried working at Wendy's, Micky D's all that shit and I couldn't get hired and I'm pretty as fuck.
