Today, I was so broke and hungry that I went to Olive Garden and faked being stood up, just so I could eat their breadsticks. FML

You should've asked for a job while you were there?

Dear friend, did you know that it's actually possible to have a good job and still have a tough month? Everyone goes through a rough patch now and then. Careful, an attitude like yours will not gain you a lot of sympathy when you have your turn.

36 - as having first hand knowledge of olive garden, I have to let you know.. Each restaurants head chef, general manager and culinary manager are all trained at the Tuscan institute. :p

Next will you be going to grocery stores just to eat the free samples?

Costco free samples. Just walk in behind someone and when they ask for a card at the door smile and point to the people on front of you like you are with them. They have some pretty tasty samples. Hot dog and a pop for 1.50 and they are the big wieners. Lol There is dumpster diving at grocery store Bins. I've never done it but my sister has. Always found fruit and veggies that weren't too bad.

Those 'best before' are really just 'sell by' dates anyway, to prevent the store from liability. It's guaranteed to be fresh until that date- and good produce should be fresh long after, but when it does go bad they're not responsible unless it's within the fresh date. But stores are legally required to not carry that perfectly fresh gallon of milk just because it is 1 day beyond the 'sell by' date. You can tell when milk's gone sour; it doesn't take a genius. It doesn't just magically go bad on the day on the carton. (I've recently come back from Mexico, they have their milk processed so they can sell it on the shelf in cartons beside the cereal boxes, sans refrigeration. Boxed the same as rice milk. You don't follow dates, you follow when it goes bad)

If I really knew who you were, I'd give you money, for keeps. Good luck with the rest of life!

I am sorry, but I think that is an awesome idea. Think of all the places you could go in for free food! Worst-case scenario you wind up paying for an appetizer. You could even go all-out, get all dressed up, bring a rose, go to a super-fancy place, see how much shit you can get for free just acting like you're waiting for someone and about to spend a bundle... just budget a bit for a couple drinks to have some fun or $20 to try some fancy appetizer after you've sat there for 1/2 hour already. But you could only do it at max, like.... twice. Several months apart. Otherwise you become either 'that cheapskate who always comes in for our bread' or 'that pathetic loser who couldn't get a date to save his life'.

They never said they were jobless but they probably have bills to pay possibly even student loans, so it's highly likely they can't afford food, I've known people that bust their ass and don't have enough money to eat at the end of the month so don't judge so quickly.
