The Resourcefulness of the Poor

You know, any other day of the year I can have 10 scheduled appointments and maybe 5 of them will bother to show up.

But give me a day like today, when it's been sleeting for the past three hours, the roads are literally coveredin inches thick ice...and every fucking appointment I made will make it in.

These people will do ANYTHING to get here on the one day that they should just stay in. I'm convinced someone built a giant sleigh and is offering a wintertime taxi service to welfare clients.

But any other day...they'd totally skip their appointment.

All I want to do is go home and read...
