    Charging as much as they can get is very consistent with their mission. It’s not their mission to provide a low-cost store where poor people can buy things. It’s to create jobs. The people working at Goodwill are what the entire thing is about. And if they make more money they can add more jobs. It’s not a goal to have low prices.

    They don’t add jobs for shit. Half the staff is there on court order and the rest are underpaid as fuck. Fuck goodwill

    My parents kicked me out twice as a kid. One time was when I was 18, and I ended up homeless for almost 5 months on the other side of the country. The shit I went through fucked me up good. They said it was “tough love.”

    Please please please don’t do something like that to your kid if you’re trying to teach them a lesson. Those 4+ months still haunt me a decade later and continue to cause me immense pain.
