People that sit on the side of the road at intersections? Hell no.

Aggressive ones that get up in my face in parking lots that claim they just need gas money or a bus pass? Almost never.

But homeless folk that I see day in and day out near downtown Dallas where I work? Yes. Most of those ones usually ask if we need help cleaning/carrying equipment or otherwise try to avoid bothering anyone and just want to be left alone. Those ones will get some change, a sandwich from 7/11, or a bottle of water b/c I know they are legit sleeping in the streets.

This is my new plan also. I have noticed the people at the intersection are well dressed and clean.

I am stealing someone elses idea of making them goodie bags when I go to those areas. Tooth brush, tooth paste, deodorant, maybe Mc Donalds gift certificates,etc
