Left where he was without the money to get where he was goin'.
How legit is that?

 

You didn't perhaps see a "will work for food" sign on him, did you? Never-the-less, good job on you.

 

You did the right thing..

 

If we have to explain, you wouldn't understand.

 

Wow. Deep.
Did You think that up all by yourself?

 

amazing how cynical we've all become. reach out to a hand in need and if you get taken - rip that hand off and stuff it up his azz

 

I rode the Metra into downtown Chicago where I worked for about 6 years until the weather drove me off. I remember seeing the same 'gentleman' on the same corner the first day I went in and on the last day as I arrived for the final time. Never the less, I always spoke to him and gave him a buck or two as my 'road tax' a couple of times a week. He most likely had more cash than I did. Panhandlers asking for 'spare change' were just a fact of life. I expect there are more now and will be even more in the future.

 

Whether he was legit or not, you did what your heart told you to, i hope if i'm ever down and out, someone does the same, thank you.

 

Tats may be old, "crap" is very vague. But broke, poor, homeless, unemployed, etc. always seem to have money for cigs. What are they these days, $8.00 a pack?

That being said, what goes around comes around. Good thing you did for a fellow rider.
