The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

I feel pressure on my heart. It's like my chest is imploding. The centre of my body is struggling. My heart is getting all funny and shit. I think I will fuck this chick one more time, drink twenty last Urquells and then fucking die on the motherfucking street totally dead. No heartbeat, rotting corpse. Bye world.
 
Going to one of my sites to see my Discovery guys at their school.

One week till MDF. Bummer I work till Saturday this week ;-; but I only work Monday and Tuesday of next week then it's all smooth sailing!
 
Waiting to finish this deep cleaning I have scheduled at the dentist but I'm super goddamn tired so hopefully they get started soon/ it doesn't take long
 
Wow I'm kinda an idiot sometimes. I just found out from a teacher and a woman who works for OPWDD (aka the government) that one of my guys is known to be con artist and use people. A few times I have complained about my agency not helping one of my guys get something to eat because he would come into the office saying he's hungry and such. Well, it looks like people (and myself) have actually dug from their pockets and given him money, supplies and food. He would be hungry because he doesn't want to eat the free food at the school. He would look dirty because he only wears name brand and would throw out the "cheap" stuff people give to him even if it's new. He basically uses people. His situation at home sucks but at the same time he's very selfish and feels entitled even though he can work. He wanted Burger King and mcdonalds as oppose to the fre food they gave him at school. I've taken him to get food about 5 times and paid out of pocket and even given him money "for dinner."


I've been conned! -.-

Are you sure he's OPWDD and not OMH? ;)

I'm not really sure how your job works but if you want to make sure the money goes to dinner even through he's using you (and co-workers?) then take him to the place and make sure the goes for the right and necessary things. Might be a bad example but because of Sweden's big immigration (which I hate) we get a lot of idiots around here. We get a lot of people sitting on the street begin for money to "food". While they sit there on their blankets and waiting to get money they play angry birds on the latest IPhone, I just can't hold myself to laugh at them. Sometimes I'm moral faggot which leads to that I can take a REAL hobo (I can see who's really in need of help. The one with IPhone or the one with old smelly clothes, bad hygiene and bad teeth) to for example McDonalds so he can pick what he wants and that I know that the money will go for food and not drugs or junk.
 
Laura: Hahaha. Awesome! You seriously know a lot, missy! :P

Luciferos: The woman who came from the government actually gave him money out of pocket too, since she felt so bad. And this woman is a stern no bullshit kinda gal and doesn't come off as gullible. Typically you definitely need receipts, but him coming into the office saying he was hungry got so frequent that my bosses didn't care anymore and just said they couldn't feed him anymore. So I just took my own money and bought him food so i wouldn't have gotten my money back for that. Definitely know better now.

That's ridiculous with the homeless people with iPhones. We have them here too. And they'd have cool retro haircuts and shit and have signs saying "I need a miracle" (fuck, i need one too!). They'd even have their pets with them too. Sure some people may be going through some things, but most times these kids aren't disabled physically at least and could work.
 
A lot of homeless people depend on their smartphones to keep connected to the world and have a presence in it, to be recognized. It helps them cope, and find jobs.
 
Grab a paper? Go around asking for a job? There's even people working to find job to others.. It's not like the homeless will be placed at the stone age without their IPhone.
 
I used my smart phone for about 60% of my job correspondence when I was unemployed. It's the information age, and positions are usually filled within a week of being posted, and there are skills tests to take and followup emails to respond to. Most jobs are posted and applied to on the internet, even retail jobs for mom and pop shops. I don't know how someone could keep up with today's job market without a smart phone.

Unless they're headed for an extended career in homelessness, that is.
 
I do get that however I've always felt more inclined to give to people on the train who asked, told their story, played a song, sing whatever than people who just sat down on the street with a sign looking forlorn.

My bf has actually picked up his guitar and played and sang on the train when he was jobless. I don't have a problem giving to people who may just be jobless at the time (and maybe not on their last dollar), but you standing outside with a sign on your iPhone is not very compelling. They could have smart phones but if you're trying to get people to give you money flashing that isn't a good idea.
 
Coffee time. I'll go home and take a shower there. I'm starting to smell like shit.
 
I'm sorry, Krig :(

F_D I'm in Albany and in a social services/health field and everyone I know has ties to state agencies! I could yap acronyms all day
