I was sitting outside the skyscraper, asking people for money. “Spare some change” I asked a man. “No, bum. Get a job. Like me. I’ve got an interview to go to,” he said. I waited until he got to the top floor. He sat outside the CEOs office. I made him wait, then went up. “What are you doing here,” he sarcastically said. I unlocked the doors to my office. “You didn’t get the job. You’re selfish. You don’t know why someone’s homeless, maybe they can’t work,” I said. I called security and had him tossed out of the building.

    Oh I loved this so much! Like even if we can't donate anything, the least we can do is be kind. That dude was so rude! Serves him right!
