Taking money for the candy from babies

I am so tired of this "candy sale". I am tired of selling CANDY to TEENAGERS! This is not how I envisioned my life. The other club sponsor insisted I do this.

But now the end is near. I am paying for the deadbeats. They can pay me if they want.

I'm tired of being a bill collector. One girl has a mother in the hospital. Another father or boyfriend immediately hung up when I started speaking. Another had to leave her house. I'm dealing with children with problems. It's my issue now and I'm going to end it tomorrow. They can pay me when they can.

But I'll be creative before the next fund-raiser.

We read "White Man's Burden" by Kipling in World History. I enjoyed the discussion greatly. Fourth is still taking advantage of me. I'm tired of them. Took a quiz about the 1920s in American.

My "burden" as a white man collecting candy money is now over. And it's only costing me money. Maybe I learned a lesson in this somewhere?
