The Pilot in North Las Vegas, NV has got to be the worst TS for panhandlers! I did a restart there 2 weeks ago & I had 5 guys hit me up for money in about 24 hrs. They stand around and wait for the drivers who are trying to park. Before the driver's even set his brakes, they were already standing at their door asking for a handout.

Just tell them you'll need the dollar to place a call to the local police to arrest them for loitering.

I can't believe how many I see these days, I never used to see them AT ALL in my town. Now, I have them walking in to my office soliciting?? I saw one yesterday, his sign read: NO FOOD, NO JOB, NOBODY CARES........ My question was, then what makes you think they will give you money then? He is either really stupid or trying to be smart using reverse psychology. He's right nobody cares.
I will share another story, my two oldest boys were at a gas station. They had already pumped the gas with the money I gave them. My middle boy (14) sees a man dumpster diving. He watches thinking the guy was looking for something he threw out. Then he saw him pick up an almost empty pop and drink it. He was horrified. He made his brother drive up to him. He got out and offered the man the only thing he had, his unopened gatorade. According to my oldest son(who is the one that told me) the man saw my son's face and had to reassure my boy that he was ok and not to cry. Told him over and over, "I'm fine, I'll be ok." It brings me to tears, my son is not a small boy he is a young man, he doesn't get emotional often. It does my heart good to know I raised a caring thoughtful person. Two different stories, one was asking for help with sarcasm The other needed help and wasn't asking for it.

I got woken at 2 am recently too. After part way through his sob story about how I'm sleeping on a comfortable bed... I closed my pop-open sleeper window and went back to sleep. Does he really think someone's going to give him money and encourage him to wake others at this time. I hope nobody gave him money.
And the ones in Detroit with the homeless signs; I thought you can buy a house in Detroit for $1.

Back in Ecorse, Michigan, my boyfriend at the time, and I were out visiting some family. When we were stopped at a light we seen this Older gentleman. With tattered clothing dirty looking walked close to my window asking for food. I was a bit scared, so I rolled up the window then we drove off. I felt really bad for doing that afterwards, so I discussed with my boyfriend on picking this guy up some nice hot food from the corner diner by the docks.
So we did so, I decided since I was the insensitive one I would deliver the food to him.. We finally located him, on a bus bench laying quietly.. I got out of the car gave my greetings, and tried to hand him this good hot food.. The man sat up, and began shrieking! He grabbed his head, and moaned as if I drove a knife into his skull... At this time this guy scared the socks off of me, and I said sir, whats wrong.. He Said I need Med's my head is splitting in two! At this point I walked back to the car where my boyfriend was, told him what was going on.. He looked at the guy, and said get in he's faking it for drugs... Then the man suddenly stopped moaning, and said with a calm voice " no I'm not"... My boyfriend, and I looked at each other, and busted out laughing! Well just to say the guy broke the first rule of acting remain in character, lol!
