Girl who was giving out food at the pantry first ignored me at the front door. She saw me and closed the door on me without greeting me. I then went to the side door and I asked a man for help he told me to knock and the girl came and killed asked if I could sign up for food. She told me they don't start until 11:00 when I told her it was past that time she seems to be put out to her duties. She was short with me and not at all interested in helping me.For an organization like yours maybe she could be better used elsewhere. She is not a people person . I hope you look interesting her.
