After standing around one whole afternoon, baking under the sun, Flag Day has left me with a slight sunburn and a few appalling experiences. I must say that the majority of people who approached me voluntarily, were merely trying to empty their sagging pockets of all their coins. They actually called me over, and I just stood there waiting politely, as they began digging through every pocket they could reach to find some coins to rid off. Most of the coins I got were fifty cents, one dollars, twenty cents, ten cents, five cents..yeah --" Well, at least they had some cash to spare! But seriously, there were some who had such a nerve..they could literally wave the contents of their wallet underneath my nose! And as I saw all the ten dollar and fifty dollar notes splurging out of the zipper, they were instead digging very hard for some five cents and ten cents to slip happily into my money bag. And there were others - "Good afternoon miss, would you like to donate to the Children's Charity?" "NO. I would not. Thanks anyway." O.O WHAT WAS THAT?! Good grief. Talk about manners and loving others as God loves you. That was ridiculous!
Anyways, besides all the dastardly people I came across, there were a few who were generous enough to spare ten dollar notes. Some even said God bless! So, I suppose there are still a few good people in this world.
