I like Lee's answer to dream job because it's mine ,too. ARRRGGGG! :"I'd like to be a pirate. I think that would be a good job. Just give me a treasure chest; I'll be fine."

I know there's a "booty" joke in there somewhere.

No lie, here's a sign I saw one of them holding one day:

I'm not hungry
I'm not homeless
But I will work for sex

It is a con, most make more than the average citizen and pay no taxes.

I always wanted to be a pirate. But back in those days they didn't admit women. lol

The best "rampers" I ever saw were 2 guys with a sign..."Need money for a fishing boat...at least we are honest".....I gave them a quarter

My favorite story about guys like that involves one of Rush's all-time great callers, the late Mick from the high mountains of New Mexico. One day he was out running errands and saw one of these guys with a "WILL WORK FOR FOOD" sign. Mick says to the guy, hey, I've got some stuff I need done on the house, come over and help and I'll set you up with some grub. The beggar goes, forget that mess, give me some money. Mick reminds him of the words of Paul the apostle: "He who will not work, neither shall he eat." Beggar starts cussing Mick out. Mick then (and from this point on it's more or less a direct quote) introduces the beggar to Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson, and the beggar repents in a hurry for speaking to the Lord's anointed in such a harsh fashion.

Mick was an interesting guy. I liked him.

I once had a conversation with a car windshield-washer ("will wash your windshield for cash") at an intersection once. He told me that it was the best job he ever had--he makes several hundred a day. He has his own hours. When he wants a break, his favorite tavern is just across the street (where is car was parked!). And the best part--he doesn't pay a penny in taxes.

Where can I find a job like that?

I think I'd like to be a quality control inspector at the Mustang Ranch.

I just want to ask why they have a bag of McDonalds next to their backpack, nicer sneakers than mine, and are only out there are nice weather days...

one of our local tv news stations did a little test to see about how much the beggars make here awhile back, set a couple reporters out on different street corners for an 8 hour day and they both averaged over $15 an hour, then they donated that money to charity. not bad for tax free money tho...

Dream job: "I dunno. I really don't. I'm on veterans' disability. I was in Vietnam."

He should run for office - he's exactly as qualified as the junior Senator from Massachusetts. ;)
