I am a cobbler, and I am one of only 5 that I know of in the country. I own my shop and it galls the devil out of me to have some guy come in and say "I want to talk to the guy in back - I need my shoes fixed". I AM the guy in back. Now what do you want done on your shoes? (I just want to jack slap these idiots back to the last century but I have to be polite but that does not mean I can not make them feel like a fool

I live in Louisiana and we had a lot of immigrants from New Orleans after the hurricane. I helped a lot of people even though my business took a hell of a hit. A year later I am still getting idiots coming in that expect me to do free work. I had to pull myself up by the bootstraps and scratch and claw for everything I have and these low brow 504's want ME to give away my work. Not "no", but Hell No! And then I will add a nuisance charge on the bill. I do not mind helping some one that has made some effort to help themselves - like the guy that walked from N.O. to B.R. and needed some shoes. Hell, I gave him some damn nice work boots because I knew he could use them.

I hate whiney people that feel _entitled_ to a handout! My taxes pay ENOUGH!
