I've been one of those people. 

By /
I lived in my car for a couple weeks before managing to score a friend's garage mostly-rent-free in Rancho Cordova for the better part of 2 years and through a bunch of slightly above minimum wage temp jobs.

If I had one suggestion to food-donators, it would be that you not donate Dinty Moore Beef Stew. That shit is nasty. 

And yes, those people know what to do with quinoa, thankyouverymuch.

She replied, “Well yes, of course. You’re not one of those people.”

 If only she knew.

+Richard Steinbicker has been one of those people, definitely can relate.

Those People
The last time I got groceries at our local food shelf was this past February. Eight months ago. Big Daddy’s court-ordered child support kicked in later that month, and even though it wasn’t much, it made the difference between buying groceries and getting them from a food shelf. For that, I’m grateful.

    This kind of crap pisses me off. I've never visited a food shelf or anything quite like that. But my family has been on WIC. And I certainly wasn't unemployed. In fact, I was active duty military AND my wife was working. 

    Those people. 

    Ha.

    I especially connected with the part about getting used to the red cheeks; it's not that you ever stop being embarrassed, you just get used to the embarrassment. I find it to be very motivating.
