It's the ones that give it the old
*sob story* "Can I have xx moneys for a phone call?" that annoy me. If they just asked for a quid towards some booze I'd fucking give it to them.

I wouldn't mind so much if it wasn't a minimum of 3 times a week.
Seriously, they go for smokers. I reckon asking for a fag is every day, although half of them aren't homeless. And every other day it seems that it leads onto asking for money.

You know whats great though, sometimes when asking for a fag, once every couple of weeks, I get a really nice story about someone going for their first job interview, and how proud their parents are'n'stuff. Proper makes me smile when one of them comes along.

Awwww, I bet you feel like a proud dad yourself.
That must be lovely.

It almost makes me feel like, that in some small way, if they get that job, that first major achievement in their life, in some small way, and by no means am I saying that it's _all_ thanks to me. But maybe, just maybe, they'll look back on this day.....
.... and think to themselves "I had a good day, I just got my first job, and I got a ciggerette off that nice man. It's like someone upstairs is looking out for me", and I'll just think to myself "No, it's not someone upstairs, I am no angel. I'm just a normal man. But pass that ciggerette on, on your first paycheque, help someone as I've helped you, so I can help them too"... like a piramid scheme of good luck.

Or they could be lying shitweasels like almost everyone else.

Nah, they'd be laying down a sob story if that was the case.

And they wouldn't continue after the fag
And those ones never ask for cash.
