Beggar

Yesterday, I went to play with my friend. When we was taking night snack aside from a busy walking path, a beggar who is a about over 40 man wearing a wreck clothes ask us for coins. I was the first to say "no" to him and shouted hime go away hardly. However, my friend gave him all his coins.

After eating and we had left a miniute, I asked my friend why he did that, and did my friend know that giving coins often would attract more others (beggars) to follow us. He said he had observed the enviroment and  believed that there was no other standing by. Therefore, he said his action had come from a pulse of mercy. Suddenly, he turned into a bit angry tone to say that the beggar seemed heathy and why he did not get a job.

He shouted "See! Here are still many people working hard and they only earn little money!" I replied "Don't see the surface as the fact. Do you considered that how many conditions should a person have for getting a job?" He was general-likely to say that if you had a heart (good attitude) and was not handicapped, there was no diffculty to find job regardless of the income. I said whether you imagined :
1. If you have no phone or ID card, how can the employer trust you?
2. If you cannot buy new clothes or wear very poor, how can the employer accept you?
3. If you havn't a constant address, how can you take a sufficient rest and take a washing for nexting working day? Be aware of the deposit.
4. If you want to satisfy the points above, how much money is needed? Do you think that a beggar's income can complete those missions? I believe those missions can only be completed by the thief under the same harsh condition.

He said "Woo! You seem having experienced a begging live, ah hah!" I said "No. I just put into his profile and thought a little more. Our first pot of gold may be for running self-business but his first pot of gold may be for getting a job. See?"
