[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see this every year at the Salvation Army Angel Tree Distribution.  There I am with my family looking hot and disheveled, dragging out bags of new selected gifts and bicycles to mom who have been to the beauty salon that morning, have decorated fingernails two inches long, makeup, tight new clothes, boots, new purses and better iphones than I use.  In fact they don't even put down the phone to bother to thank us - the donors to the salvation army - nor do they even respond when I wish them a "Merry Christmas".  Most, if they check their backs, complain that the microwaved they asked for it is not in there.  I'm done with the attitude of entitlement.  ANd yes all of these moms are perfectly capable of working from what I can observe.[/quote]
I had the same experience with distributing "angel tree" gifts. (Not sure it was the Salvation Army program....it was similar, though.) It was more than 20 years ago, so I don't remember the logistics of how we did the distribution, but I know that we (the individual gift-givers) actually handed our gifts to the specific families. (We had been given a list of wishes from each family, and some of the items they were asking for were a fortune. I stuck with the more modest gifts for a fsmily of three children and ended up spending about $100.) On "distribution day," we handed out the gifts - and as I gave a big Meeey Christmas to each of the kids, they took the gift and left. No smile. No thank you. Nothing. And the mother was with the kids, of course, and SHE didn't even say thank you. They just figured that they're poor, I'm "rich," and they're entitled. [/quote]
