I felt he was hardworking and I wanted my kids to appreciate someone doing their best. The kids liked the ritual (and I’m sure the Saxman did as well).

Then one day, I was walking across the bridge with three of my kids and did not have any cash with me. As I walked by, the Saxman called me cheap and a few other insults in front of my kids.

Never again. His insults may be good natured. But this one was poorly timed.
