As much as we'd like to think we are helping these guys to get back on their feet, the fact is that ? in reality ? there isn't much that can be done for them. Redemption is a gift that is given only to a few, and none of these rotten scoundrels deserve it, anyway. So, we go through the motions: strict discipline, enforced cleanliness, focus on meaningful work and a paycheck, and of course, all those steps they have in their meetings. At the end of the day, however, and especially after having dealt with similar fuckwads for years and years, it has become obvious that most of them will just end up going back to their same bad habits, and then paying for those habits by giving themselves up to the nearest dude with some cash in his pocket.
