Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Compelling story in Business Week about a 59-year-old walking the streets of Manhattan trying to find work wearing a sandwich board sign stating he is almost homeless.

Just as interesting as the story is the ongoing conversation in the comments section that includes comments from the man, his former employers, friends, strangers, etc.The sandwich-board man isn’t trying to shine your shoes or get you to step into a jewelry store in the Diamond District. He’s not pretending that he lost his wallet and that he needs $10 to catch the train back to the suburbs. No, he’s trying to find a job.
