The EDGE (Earning Dignity, Gaining Employment) provides comprehensive daytime support services to homeless men and women in our community who are seeking employment. The focus of The EDGE is unique — we challenge homeless men and women to develop their own job search strategies and hold them accountable for taking advantage of every opportunity to change their current circumstances.

We only work with individuals who are serious about leaving homelessness and ready to commit to a plan of action for rebuilding their lives.
Why The EDGE Is Needed
Finding employment is a daunting task for anyone, but when you’re homeless it’s an even bigger challenge. Without access to telephones, a mailing address, and transportation assistance, a job search is impossible.

It’s a good thing that you aren’t an editor of a magazine, because it wouldn’t be on the shelves for long. Also glad you don’t write my paychecks either. You’d be hard pressed to find anyone of any talent level to work for such pay.

Although, as to your comment about my photos not being worth $15. I have an inkling that that’s more a statement about your bank account than the actual value of my photo.

And for the record, I was looking at the other auto photos you had, not the event coverage, as that is never worth my time. But, hey … again, what do I know, right?

I have done work for some of the biggest auto mags and my work has been on the shelves almost daily since I started. I was trying to help you out, having worked for car dealerships in San Antonio and doing work for automotive magazines, I felt I had something to offer, but as you said you, “don’t care”. You clearly don’t want to listen/learn anything. I honestly could care less if you think I’m trying to puff out my chest and make myself look important, you only need to check the magazine rack for that.

So, I clearly have nothing of value to add to this discussion that you’ll actually listen to.

Good luck and you may want to memorize the phrase, “would you like to open a Wal-Mart charge card today?” — It may help you in the future.
