Gee, What a Nice Thief

You know where else the doors are unlocked? The store. Does that mean you can take it if you’re hungry?

I guess so, as long as you leave a note.

  1. I’m willing to give the person a pass on this one. They at least had enough decency to leave an apology and an explanation.

    You can’t even get something like that from your average megalomaniacal politician.

    I thank God and count my blessings that I’ve never been hungry ever in my entire life.

  2. Damn if someone is hungry and they apologized for taking a Kit Kat, I would take them to McDonalds and buy them a few hamburgers. Sounds like a decent person with a good heart who is really down on their luck. I grew up in rural flyover country and still am kind of soft hearted.

  3. I once got panhandled outside of a drive-in restaurant by guy who said he needed money for food. Knowing that most bums are looking to buy booze, I said, “OK, what do you want to eat, up to five bucks?”. Wound up getting him a burger, fries, and coke combo, for which he thanked me profusely, and consumed promptly.

    That being said, I am not an easy touch. I’ve heard all the stories, all the lies, and I usually don’t allow myself to be suckered. Sometimes you get a feel for who’s on the level, though.

  4. I shit you not, twice now I’ve been scoffed at as being racist for protecting my own shit. It wasn’t in my face either time but it was clear the jeering was aimed at me.

    The first was at a burger place where a black couple came in and sat at the table next to me as I waited for my order. When it came up, I jumped up, forgot and then remembered to grab my cell phone before going to the counter. I was met with all kinds of giggles and undertones of stolen phone talk when I returned to my table.

    The next time was after locking my truck as I walked 15ft away from it while it was parked next to a car load of black people. Again with the undertones, Daaaayuuuum did he just lock his shit?

    Yup, especially when I see niggers.

  5. Went to a rental house for a long time customer yesterday to give a bid on taking care of a severe rat and flea problem.

    Everyone on the street stared at me and my son is we drove down the street in his Silverado. I am positive the truck is worth more than any of the houses there.

    We were hit up for free rat bait within 10 minutes. One guy that was supposed to be doing some cleanup there, took off after three minutes and came back high as all get out. Another guy drove up and sized us up, them asked us to leave some work for him. He thought we were remodeling.

    At about seven houses several people stood in each of the yards and stared our way the whole time.

    Today was one of the few times I worked with my Glock on me.

    Oh yeah, I put twice the price on it that I normally do.

    I’ve been at this 30 years now and that is the most hostile street I’ve ever worked on.
