guacomole wow,what can i say except obviously you have never stayed at a adult rehab facility.we were given off 1 day per week during the week,and a half a day on saturday.also off all day sunday.working in slave like conditions?we had pin pong,television/cable,outstanding meals well portioned,air conditioning,all the recreational work out equipment we could stand,a computer room,a library…man i’ll stop because the list goes on.but i do know that you have never stayed in a a.r.c. facility before.and if you did i can tell that you were probably one of those that got kicked out because you didnt want to do any work or went back out and used again,dont blame the army for your shortcomings or laziness.i never saw anyone at several different locations not just 1,work more that 8 hours a day…period

i was a driver for 1 year with salvtion army,my job was to pick up donations.i also was in the adult rehabilitation program at the same time.i was told at first to p/u all donations whether it was torn furniture or not.our commander honestly believed that people should not be refused to donate items however,that changed because the arc was paying expensive dump fees for the continuous loads of unusable donated furniture.it would be a wonderful thing if they could have a place to store these torn or slightly damaged items and just offer it to those who wanted it for free but that is unrealistic to expect the salvation army to have a million sq. foot warehouse to store these items which come in each and every day.the stores that sell the donated goods are limited space and the army tries to put nice stuff in there,as they should.each arc is responsible for paying their expenses by what they sell in the stores and auto donation sales.the driver should try and kindly explain to the donators that.you cant please every1 but i found that more than likely when i explained this the majority understood.grant it the salvation army was not perfect as i saw on many issues but as far as donated items i would even ask the people if they would like me to carry it to the curb for them if in fact they just wanted it out so i hope this gives a little more insight into the donation pickups

Also, everyone they ‘give’ shelter to is FORCED to WORK in slave like conditions 8 hours a day (those who aren’t lucky enough to be a Veteran where the state pays the freight) and then cannot ever leave because their too busy working for THEM to get a job. What a JOKE! FUCK THE SA they are the DEVIL!

Yes I agree. The Salvation Army is a Scam! They are really as you said it ‘assholes’. Get this, want to know more? Not only are they arrogant fools, they don’t even give to charity! NOT! They get paid by the States they do ‘business’ in, (yes it is referred to as business because they MAKE money!) yes they charge for housing VETERANS at Northport Long Island NY the State of NY (and get every penny) $1,540.00 per month for them to stay in a shelter for the homeless Vets ON Govt property (which they pay a whopping $1.00 per month rent as a courtesy from Uncle Sam) and pocket the difference! Wow, SOME do gooders! They do the same crap all over ring bells and cry whilst their officers and employees rake in the dough. They get DONATIONS to give stuff away, so don’t feel badly, they rejected your stuff because they can’t resell it for a nice profit. They are very keen on that, get stuff for free, sell it and THEN don’t even have to give to charity…so who is getting the cash? (It started in switzerland and still is based there). SO, FUCK THE SA! I agree! Not only that Uncle Sam pays them millions to run the food over in iraq. NOT FREE. Go figure, we have been thoroughly scammed once agai with the politicians blessings!

Frankly as a supervisor for a salvation army store I would love to say fuck ya back! First off I’m not the average church like guy I got hired like a normal dude and yeah I drink a beer on a hot day and have a kid like a lot of u. I get inta fights here and there but most importantly I work way 2 hard with little respect.. Imagine U wake up go 2 work at 8 am, arrive to see a public and county parking lot turned into a fuckin landfill.. Very filthy things like soiled and ripped sofas, mattresses, wood rotted furniture, pissed and shitted on clothing broken tvs, fucking bags of garbage, crack pipes and bongs, used condoms and more filthy fuckin shit.. Try cleaning that fuckin shit up to 5 days a week.. Who the fuck r u to dump on our property, do u c us shitting on ur doorstep, throwing our garbage in urs? NO….We have a basic fuckin respect standard that if I wouldn’t own it myself why would we put that on someone else. B realistic, we do u a favor, we help u and in helping u, it in turn helps another.. Well if u have items that will prove unhelpful for the people we intend to help than no we don’t want that. Fuck ur stained couch we r not cleaners. Ur broken tv no I don’t repair shit. That tiny piss stain on ur mattress, how bout u sleep on it and touch it with no sheet. I have done more help in 2 and a half years than most of u will in ur life. I don’t wanna fuckin medal no thank you no good job pal, I help cus its right and fuckin people over is wrong… Now I would like 2 say thank u 2 people who do give a damn and don’t expect and give qualtiy useable items for practical helpful use for others, 2 u others who abuse us… u r sad, no god bless u from me that aint my style but fuck u sure fits

Most homeless shelters a fucking scam.
They get millions of dollars from people and the government. 90 million from the government in the states I heard. And a small portion actually gets to people in need.
They buy house for the big wigs to live in. Pay all their living expences. Treat their lower employees like shit. Treat the homeless like a number. Send money you donate locally, to bible thumping operations around the world. Fire people who arent christian.
Its all about the money.
Thats why they reject something they could have fuckin GIVEN away. Instead thought they could not swing a profit, so so rejected it.
Fuck the salvation army.
