I feel bad for the kids. It wasn't their idea to solicit donations.
They applied for a job because they needed cash and were assigned to solicit donations on busy street corners. Then they're put under intense pressure to meet their "quota."
I had to go to door-to-door soliciting donations for MassPIRG years ago. I lasted a week before I quit. It's the worst job I've ever had.
