that the Salvation Army bell ringer and the homeless guy standing six feet away from him at the Walgreens across the street are competing for the same customers. I even heard the bell ringer getting competitive with the homeless guy by trying to out-pander him. Speaking louder, stealing his lines ("remember on the way out?").
People are much more generous to the sealed red bucket than the eyesore of a almsman. That racket is a gold mine. If I were the homeless guy, I would just accost one of the ringers and steal his bell and bucket.
Actually....
that's not a bad idea.....
