Begging In Front Of Supermarket Stores
This is a recent thing I have noticed while out grocery shopping. I have seen this primarily in front of no frills and fresco. Individuals standing in front of supermarket stores with generic signs looking for money. You get the standard greeting coming and going in and out of store. I have no issue withe people needing help but in some cases they appear to be the same family shifting from store to store on a loop. Nothing wrong with needing help, but everyone is struggling with bills and these people may want to try going inside and applying for a job! While they aren't aggressive it is a bit of a pain seeing able bodied people begging day in day out. I work hard for my money so seeing someone sitting there all day in a nice suburb begging all day and potentially making more than 15/hr is kinda disgusting. That said the Fresco manager put his foot down and chased them away. Times are tough but there are many services out there to help people in need. Social assistance, low income housing, food banks etc. Begging is just lazy.
