DEAR ABBY: I am.a pushover for young pea le. Four
‘young employees who work with me have berrawedl money
from me for “personal emergencies.” The smallest amount
wae $800. Not one of those who owes me haa ever mentioned
the debt, or made driy effort to fepay even a part of it. One
debt is three years old: (By the way, I didn’t ask for any
interest on my money, nor did. 1 ask anyone to sign a note.)
All four co-workers ‘are very friendly ta me, and none
seems embarrassed about his non-payment. I am far from
‘wealthy and could use thé cash myself, as I shall be retiring
