thanks m-rex, thats kinda what i worried about, why i thought of stashing it to be found by police.
again, turning this guy in will do zero- if guy was wlaking around with it in his pack, i would already have told him he had about as much time to get rid of it as i had to use my phone.
the homeless stash thigns everywhere. in the hills, in dumpsters, sewers, steam tunnels on campus.
stupid thing could be ANYwhere. turning guy in only turns him, and a bunch of other people against me, and wastes police time rifling (heh) thru people's stuff.
i will report on this later, i need to get something to eat, might as well see what happened.\
It's bad enough to even let someone in my house for a job, but to find out that one of them is a homeless person is terrible. Do you tell the homeowner that you are hiring homeless people?.
yes always. most people are glad to be giving someone a hand.
do you do a thorough background check on your garbage man?
we're not running around inside expensive houses unsupervised by the owner here, we're hauling junk from garages and yards
again, yer thinking too much. ive been runnign this biz for 5 years- and guess how i got started.
truck has been in biz for 20 years, i was one of those homeless who started out helping driver.
some of the guys who work for me use the money to get a cellphone and get a real job.
the logic behind the quote is sad, really.
i guess you'd be happier i hire total strangers with homes i have never been to?
or illegal aliens?
you take your chances hiring ANYONE- when I hire a homeless person, i have my own background check system in place. besides i haul trash, its not like anyone gets many oppurtunities to steal, we're usually outside, in lots, construction, etc.
again! i check these people out first, get to know them slightly before bringing anyone to a job i would need to care about that kind of thing.
thieves need not apply. there are lots of guys who are always saying "hey man why won't you hire me sometime"
and i say
"because you are a thief" or whatever.
