Had a nice convo with a guy in a wheelchair. As I was leaving I said I had to go walk my dog and run some errands. Shit.

A friend of mine bought a homeless person's last magazine they were selling and happily told him "now you can go home".

I had a chat with a few homeless men. At one point im not sure whether i should give him or not so i ask him "do you need some money?"

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

He said no. And he also said to give my money to my parents. I was 29 with mustache, beard and everything.

Statistically speaking, he probably went to his own home.

Means they don't enjoy your company, or do have somewhere they need to be. The homeless are deceptively busy people.

@CrimsonLemon mind writing one of these "day in my life" (or whatever they are called) stories about that time?

Places to go, people to see! Also if you get to a dumpster fast enough the uneaten food is still pretty good! Just don't dive to deep lol!

I met a client after hours at a jail. I said, "it's been a long day, I've been in this jail for 8 hours now!" He said, "me too........"

I also work in a jail. I always ask the prisoners how they're doing. They usually have the good graces to lie to me.

My opening line is usually, "hey ____, how ya doin'? You know, besides the whole being in prison thing."

PS @Gunshanks, you have one of the hardest and most thankless jobs out there. Good COs can make HUGE differences in my clients' lives (1)

(2) and futures. But being a good CO is hard, harder than being a good cop. Burnout is easy. Keep your head up and take care of yourself.

I actually just deliver Commissary, it's one of the easiest (though admittedly most annoying) jobs I've had.

PS @OP, simply talking to homeless people like humans is one of the best things you can do short of providing long-term physical help.

probably food and shelter is nice too, but yeah your probably a little right

Alternatively, "if he's homeless, why doesn't he just buy a house?"

He should get a loan from his parents. A small one, maybe a million or so.
