So, I left at 9:00am today, going out to do something good for my community...(and also get my graduation community service done).
I went to a place called "MUST Ministries", which has multiple homes type places and give out free food and clothes to the people that need it. Was only there from 10-3, not that hard.
But there was one thing I noticed: People were being stingy...with free stuff. I understand that you might be allergic to something, and thats fine, but for you o deny food because it's "not sliced bread" or "those cookies look old". BITCH THE FOOD JUST CAME FRESH OF THE TRUCK AN HOUR AGO!
One lady had the nerve to scream at me and say "THIS ISN'T ENOUGH FOOD! YOUR BLACK ASS NEEDS TO GO GET MORE" I almost ripped her fucking spine out.
Some people didn't even bother to make eye contact, or a damn thank you. I don't even care if you didn't know how to speak engilsh. At least acknowledge what we are doing here.
Some people are the most ungrateful assholes that dont appreciate anything! These people had to say any of the above is just ridiculous! Only thing stopping me from slapping all of them into realization was that fact that I'd go to jail...
Honestly, if your going to come to a food bank, or whatever you want to call it, where people are volunteering to help you, don't be a bitch.
I never expected anything in return except the community service hours, but when people act like that, and all you are doing is helping them, it makes me wonder why I live in this damn, slowly failing country. (USA)
A lot of the people who go to those homes are only broke because they'd rather support a drug addict than buy food. I'm not saying everyone in there does that, but a good majority probably do. Some of the people just take it out on you because their life is shitty. They see a young man trying to help them, and they quickly assume that you think you're better than them, and they'll be nasty.
A lot of people are just like that in general regardless of their situation. People will find any reason to treat another human being like shit because they don't know you, and you don't know them, so they can get away with it.
Some people are just shitty with no explanation.
