offer him lunch, see if he takes it instead - I've told people in similar situations that if they need the money, I don't need to know why. But instead of giving money, I've offered to buy them a sandwich & a pop, but I can't give them money just in case they're going to spend it on booze. If they need to get somewhere, offer to get a taxi for them.
Usually people will take the lunch, they may grumble about it but in the end, they'll fill up their belly if you offer it to them. |
