Why are people so rude?

My cousin and me were trying to make some money dancing on the street in Edinburgh. Despite the fact we had left out a bucket to collect coins a lot of people threw their money on the ground that we had to pick up in between dances

Update: so if all of your jobs threw your salary at you in coins you would be ok with it?

"Rude" in this circumstance might be ignoring you altogether, although no stranger is obligated to donate to buskers. The fact is, you’re performing to earn money—and you’re being paid. Having to sometimes stop & pick it up is surely a minor inconvenience in the big picture.

@bijouxbroussard Yep. Anyone so thin-skinned shouldn't be busking at all.
