Salvation Army Bell Ringers.

A Salvation Army bell-ringer known as "Boaacn" collects donations outside New York's Grand Central Station as part of an emergency fundraising campaign July 13, 2009 in New York City. Due to the global economic downturn the bell-ringers normally only seen over the Christmas holiday period are fundraising throughout summer.
So you know those people who stand at the door and ring the bell with a kettle next to them?
That's what HK's new job is.
She's an official, Salvation Army Bell Ringer.
Fancy.
I never knew these people got paid to work in the freezing cold.
This is probably one of the most frustrating jobs of the winter.
Reasons :
It cold as fudge ice cream.
if people don't donate enough money to you, you're officially fired.
Example: You get paid 50 bucks for around 7 hours, and if you only make 40 you're fired. So you have to make more than they are paying you.
It wouldn't hurt if your boss didn't yell at you because he/she didn't listen to your specifications. 

ugh, working sounds so harrrd!

Next time you hear a ringing bell, whip out your wallets.
