Running away will not satisfy your hunger for these things. The only thing you will be escaping is facing your own fears. Man up, get productive, eat right, exercise. You will be too tired to wish for something you have already. |

Look, I get where you're coming from but I have made several different comments already about my skills in construction, handyman/maintenance work and I've done roofing, painting, some carpentry, etc. That's not counting experience in food service, retail, tech support, graphic design, marketing, blog/web development and so on. When I said I wanted somewhere homeless/vagrant friendly I meant places that would have missions or shelters in place where I could stay while looking for work. I've been homeless before and never asked a single person on the street for help other than getting meals at a soup kitchen and even then when I was in that situation I took every opportunity I could to volunteer to carry my weight. Nowhere did I say I wanted to be a leech or a boon on society. Though I appreciate your bluntness, I did need to clarify that for you because I feel you are seriously misunderstanding what I'm saying here and perhaps that is my fault so I hope that clears things up a bit. |
