crawl out of that sh*t,

you know, climb the ladder.

What is noble, Justin?

Huh?

Is what I do noble?

Is anyone here doing

anything that means a thing?

I mean, are the

a**holes that sent

you and thousands

of people like you

to fight and die

brave and noble?

Leave it up to our

base human instincts,

and nobody would

do anything that

means anything.

You were there,

you know?

You did what most

of us don't do...

think about, and you

did it all expecting

nothing more than

a little thanks in

the form of a handout.

That is noble.

Well, when you

put it that way...

It's f***ing true,

and you know it.

-Come on, it's on me.

-No. I can't...

You know what?

Shut the f*** up.

I'm done talking until you

accept what I told you.

In the future, I recommend

you not sneaking up on me.

Just take me home.

Yes, Miss Teacher.

Hi. I'm calling about the job

you have listed in the paper.

Yeah, the job opening.

Okay. 11 a.m.?

Yeah, I could do that.

Hi, Justin.

My name's Becky.

-Nice to meet you.

-How are you doing today?

Good, thank you.

Just some

basic questions.

Do you have

a food handler's card?

No.

Okay, you need to get

one of those before

you can work here.

It's very simple.

You can go online

and get 'em.

It's just a few dollars.

And transportation...

you have transportation?

-Yeah, I have a truck.

-Okay, good.

That's important,

and um, black slacks?

Do you have black slacks

or black pants?

No, I don't

have black slacks.

Those you need to have

before you can start

working here, too.

So, um, what do you think

qualifies you to work in

this establishment?

Well, I just got out

of the Marines.

I don't see how

five tours of duty are

gonna help me here.

Well, you never know.

It's kind of a battle field

in here at times, especially

during the summer.

Um, it's... you know,

right now we are

doing some hiring for

spring and summer,

so um, we do have

a lot of other applications

that we're looking at.

Yeah, so apparently

I'm not the right fit for a fast

paced career at Dairy Freeze.

Yeah, I don't give

two shits about it.

I could just use the

extra cash. That's all.

No.

That is not the uniform

women find sexy.

No. I picked up a few

applications on the way home.

Oh, by the way,

I got your note.

No excuses now, huh?

That was really nice of you,

but you don't have

to be giving me money.

You teachers don't make

enough money anyway to

be giving it away.

Yeah.

No seriously.

I'll be fine.

It's good to walk... builds

up strength in my gimp leg.

Shut the f*** up.

Shut the f*** up!

F***!

F***, f***, f***,

f***, f***, f***!

Like I've said, poverty

consists not in the decrease
