I have the misfortune of working in a building that's near Boston's priciest shopping district, three colleges full of naive international students, and a half mile away from Fenway Park. I haven't even mentioned the out-and-out con artists--Angry Black Man who yells "RACIST!" at anyone who doesn't stop to hear his pitch for a (nonexistent) childrens library, Worst Car Ever Guy who always needs $24 to go buy a "dry battery" from the hardware store and get his car off the expressway, and many more.

I'm around there too, it sucks.
