  • How lazy can you get?

    BG since I've not posted in a while: I'm a truck driver for a charity organization that accepts donations of items and resells them to fund their various programs.

    As such we have these sheds all over the place so people don't have to travel long distances to get to a store or an attended site.

    Twice now at this one particular site I've pulled up to find donations left outside the door of the shed. Normally this means that the shed is so full that the donator can't get the donation in the little hole on the side for putting donations in.

    I open the shed to find there is hardly anything in there! And everything on the ground would have fit through that window no problem.

    I really want spy camera to grab their license plates and software to locate their house so I can just dump their crap back on their front lawn.

        The local Salvation Army doesn't have any kind of drop system, so people just steal everything that gets left. You're supposed to donate during limited hours on certain days, but if you have a regular job there's no way you can do it.

          We had a nice thrift store near where I lived. They had HUGE signs on their side door where you made drop-offs stating NO drop-offs after closing, donate only between hours X and Y, no furniture, etc. By the next morning would be a monstrous pile of 'donations' scattered through the lot, including...furniture. And if it rained, they had to pay to have all that trash hauled away. Their side door faced the street, so it made the area look pretty trashy.

            We tried doing that Salvation Army donation thing. They had the time and day of the curbside pickup, including the instructions on how to mark it as an item to be donated.

            Moving ahead of the Salvation Army truck were a group of scavengers, looting everything valuable from the donations, scattering everything all over the sidewalk and street, and destroying the donation tags on the stuff. They did this for as far as I could see. They apparently knew the exact time and route of the truck and were just a few hours ahead of it.

              Scavengers are a bunch of greedy blowtards. Who robs from the salvation army?
