reason 99,803,421,353,343 to leave my job.

I was talking with a coworker this morning about possibly taking a new family into the shelter. A woman called looking for shelter for she and her husband and their 2 kids. The woman said they signed guardianship of the kids over to her mom until they can find shelter where they can all stay together. Right now the man and woman are staying at the adult homeless shelter where no children are allowed. The woman disclosed that she has been clean for 3 months and her husband has been clean for 4 months. She was talking about drugs, not showers.

This is what my coworker said to me... "I told her we don't have any space available. And this is terrible to say but what would we do with a couple of crack heads?"

Um. Our jobs? She was right though. We don't have any space available.
