Part of me feels bad for the guys who just got ratted out. Homelessness is a pretty disorienting thing.
Part of me feels like this is just another way of saying that there's a bay area housing shortage...
It's well known that Google's free meals policy is widely abused. At the end of day, you'll see lots of people getting on the bus home with their dinners, sure. But it gets a lot worse; some people bring home enough food to feed their whole families over the weekends. Management knows about it, and doesn't do anything.
It's nice to know that management at Google isn't blind to what's going on. I suppose they'll find a clever way to curtail anything that gets really out of hand.
I've been homeless. Long story.
If you've been sleeping in a parking lot and now security has caught on, you're homeless. Are you judging them because they happen to have some money saved up?
People save on rent all the time: crashing at friends, moving in with their BF/GF, moving back with their parents, etc... so this is nothing new and I have no problem with the money saving aspect. I just don't equate it with homelessness.
