Panhandling Schedules?

The Allisonville and 465 intersection in Castleton is a panhandlers mecca. Every day homeless people from across the city travel there to fill their pockets with change. Each 465 entrance and exit is posted with people. Different people everyday. Is there a schedule that rotates? Is it first come first serve? Is it millitary veterans on Mondays and Wednesday and single mothers on Tuesday and thursday with a random of the week on Friday?

 

If these people are so driven to these spots every day then why cant they get a job? They will show up early, work more than 8 hours, and be friendly and polite to strangers.

 

I am surprised Mayor Ballard hasn't placed a collection box there.

I've heard that those people average $400/day-way more than I make at my job!

$400 a day! That's gotta be stretching it. I graduated Vincennes and have basically been doing the same thing as these guys (whoring) ever since. And all I've gotten is a lousy dot-com job and crabs! ...Any ladies out there lookin for a project? ;)
