Another quick sketch

Found this oldie too.

EXT. STREET-DAY

A busy high street. A charity worker wearing a fluorescent jacket and holding a clipboard, stands in the middle of the pavement, people passing him by. A middle-aged woman approaches him.

MIDDLE-AGED WOMAN
Hello, what are you...?

CHARITY WORKER
Sorry, I'm in a hurry...

The woman walks on. Two school girls approach and he steps to the other side of
the pavement.

A suited man stops.

SUITED MAN
Can I...?

The charity worker puts up his hand and shakes his head.

CHARITY WORKER
Not now.

He turns and the logo on his jacket can be read: "HELP THE APATHETIC"

Really nice idea, but maybe the charity worker needs to show a little more apathy?

If the people approached and asked:

MIDDLE-AGED WOMAN
What are you collecting for?

CHARITY WORKER
This and that... nothing really.

SUITED MAN
Are you doing research?

CHARITY WORKER
Well, I was going to, but...

Or just turns up his nose?

I could go on Dolly... but I really can't be bothered ;)

Prefer Dolly's sketch as it is. Think it's good. The other 2 she's posted recently are also good. Yay Dolly!

I'd just stop there.

Thanks for reading, comments and suggestions folks. :)
