Desire : What is Important to You in Business?

The girls in foster care were afraid to return home at 10:00 pm. The state took the girls away from the foster mom when the foster mother’s boyfriend started to abuse the girls as well as take their money from selling candy. Adults on drugs find a way to pay for their narcotics habit. Stealing from children isn’t out of the equation for ex-cons. That is why a bad economy frustrates me. When crooks can’t feed their habit the individuals will turn to any crime, especially when the economy has turned sour. Winter was arriving. I had to find another job. Breathing in the gas fumes was getting to me. Abuse of the foster kids was scaring me, especially the girls who were younger than me, and cried before getting out of the van to return home to the abuse waiting inside their apartment. Many of these young girls didn’t go to school during the day like me. Poor kids are the first to be bullied. These girls had no way to defend themselves at home let alone junior high school. Might makes right. Usually might comes with money. Kids with privilege use money to bully the weak. Their mother didn’t make them go to school so they waited for the candy van to pick them up in the afternoon. By then, I liked making money. The video games using quarters didn’t interest me anymore. I wanted greenback bucks. 501 jeans were easy to earn after working all weekend walking from door to door with cheap chocolate turtles handing out are verbal pitch, I started verbalizing the sales hustle. These lines flowed from my mouth the way water explodes from a dam made of ice under the summer sun as soon as the door opened, “Carmel, almonds, and dark chocolate mixed together. Twelve to a box. If you help me, I will be able to earn a trip with my friends to Great America. See, I am a member of the Student Aid Program. The Student Aid Program is a youth organization designed to keep kids off the street. Now we have Chocolate Waffers, Peanut Brittle, and these Mints. The Mints are new. You would really be helping me out. I have never been to Great America before. Please help me out. $3.00 per box. We take checks or cash.”
