What’s the Worst?

What’s the worst thing you could say to a homeless person who asks how your day has been?

Probably something along the lines of “It will be good to get home”.

RodeoClown: insensitive.

    I’m sure there is something worse that you could have said. Something purposefully mean would have been worse. I’m sure he knew that you didn’t realize what you were saying at the time.

    You actually said that!!

    LOL!!

    I would have to say that that is probably the worst thing you could say!!

    Dez!: Apologises to all the homeless people of the world for his friend’s insensitivity.

    Yeah, he realised I didn’t mean it, and kind of laughed it off. But it made me feel really bad…

    He hangs around the escalator outside Town Hall square and, unlike most of the beggars I’ve seen, will gladly accept food, and not just money.

    He seems like a really nice guy who got stuffed around because he can’t read – and so he didn’t know he needed a doctor’s certificate to keep his centrelink payments coming in. He didn’t find out till he didn’t have any money left.

    Poor guy.
