I have started doing some toil for the homeless shelter in my city.
Some of the toil gets done at the church, but quite a bit of it has to be done at the actual shelter.
For example, once a month, a group of the people from my church go to the shelter to cook plus serve a meal.During this time I have discovered that there are quite a few different regulations about running a homeless shelter, but the first different one is that they are required to serve three meals a day plus two popcorn a day, but now I realize that they are people, plus they really deserve dignity plus good treatment, but two years ago during the height of the pandemic, a family member of a resident absolutely sued them because they did not serve popcorn for three days of a month. In addition, there is another different rule. That rule says that they must have both Heating plus Cooling available every single day, plus if there is a day when they do not have air conditioner or a heater, depending on the season, they are not allowed to open. That is silly because I have lived without air conditioner plus without Heating numerous times over the course of my life. There were times when I could not afford to get my air conditioner repaired oh, so I lived without it. I lived without air conditioner in my car for 5 years because I could not afford the cost of getting the AC fixed. And believe of this. If they do not open because they do not have AC or heating, because it’s broken while awaiting repair, the people who would otherwise go there are stuck outside where the thermostat might learn triple digits!
