A guy on the street did give me five dollars one morning. I spent it at Starbucks. I got food stamps after my first year of homelessness and did a very modest amount of work that paid a small sum. I was too much of a mess to expect legit employment.<br /><br />You may not know if you were included in the Homeless Count. When they do the one-night count in January, they will include people that have recently received services of some kind from the homeless charities, even if the guy isn't on a shelter list and they don't see him on the night of the count.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13718601770472939313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2108272364747244016.post-59631144748553395122015-09-09T13:29:13.561-07:002015-09-09T13:29:13.561-07:00I don't know if my message made it so I will r...I don't know if my message made it so I will redo it in short form. I am homeless, I wasn't counted as one I don't think, I work part time and i get food stamps. I sleep in my truck and am still looking for full time work, and I certainly DON'T BEG for money.
