What a busy day at my Aid of Rite. There was a parade, we had the start of the Children's Miracle Network (donate money to support the children's hospital in the communities Aid of Rite serves; ours goes to the children's hospital in Boston), I had Easter baskets to wrap for the raffle to raise money for said network, and we were short staffed to boot.
Paranoid, Much?
Now, I get that people don't like to donate to charities because there have been certain ones that keep a percentage for themselves; however, on request, they send us binders of percentage of kids helped from local towns in our state and (if I remember) the breakdown of where your donation goes. All donations go 100% to the local hospitals. I need to ask SM if we can have one of the past year's binders up front in case this happens again.
I had one guy BADGER me when I asked him if he'd like to donate, accusing me of keeping the donations, asking me what percentage I take and not believing me when I say I'm not allowed to keep money.
My Money! Mine! Give It!
And the original reason why I wanted to post tonight: I was reminded by this thread that being so short can be a curse; if I remember, there's been threads about it before.
Why do dillweeds feel the need to hold money above my head or else squeeze it tightly so I can't take it out of their hands? You purchased this, you need to pay for it. GIVE ME YOUR MONEY, DICKWEED. If I was 6" tall and did that to you, you would hate it too. The stupidest part? The guy who did it to me today was only an inch or so taller than I was and CACKLED at me when I tried to take his money. Seriously?
Bonus: Haha, I Guilted You!
I guilted some guy into donating a dollar to the CMN fund today, he had a purchase of small items, paid with a $50. I said something to the effect of, "My! With such a large bill, surely you can afford a dollar?" He slapped down a dollar and left.
