can we please stop pretending this shit is good?!!?! What the fuck!!!!!

I don’t understand why this is a bad thing??

whats sold as inspirational here is somebody whose fear of being fired and having their source of food and shelter yanked away from them forced them to push themselves to unhealthy lengths

Walking isn’t unhealthy, whoever told you that is lazy. Dude got a job for a company and wanted to prove his reliability, he could’ve given up and not showed up but unlike most people he made a commitment and stuck to it and guess what. That commitment paid off. Its like you people are unable to handle when. Someone it’s doing better than you.

You have never walked 20 miles ever

whats with all the fucking bootlickers on this site?

he literally left his house at midnight. 

How does someone see a 20 mile, eight hour walk as “a good work ethic” and not as a man whose been driven beyond his limits to ensure he doesn’t lose the one thing that keeps him from starving to death I mean what the fuck

God you people are fucking weak

sign your car over to me and walk to work to prove how strong you are

I mean if I ever had to I’m fully prepared to. I’ve had a coworker who walked about 10 miles from downtown to work cause he happened to not have a ride. Y’all are entitled as hell

Yes, I am in fact ‘entitled’ to not have to choose between walking eight hours followed by a days work and homelessness

an eight hour walk there, followed by an eight hour day then an eight hour walk back, that’s literally 24 hours of work nonstop because he couldn’t afford to miss a single day of work, literally what the fuck is wrong with people saying that’s okay????

I mean, he didn’t have to. He choose to.

That’s what separates the successful people from the less successful. Not money, grit and determination. Maybe it wasn’t the smartest move, but it wasn’t from a place of fear. He wanted to do a good job. He cared. I’m proud of him.

Buddy, you have bought into some dangerous propaganda. 

Nobody walks 20 miles to their job out of ‘grit’, this kind of deed is always inspired by the terror and panic that’s constantly instilled in the working class. The resources we need to survive are constantly held hostage, do not tell me he never thought ‘if i don’t push myself they’ll say i’m lazy, if i don’t push myself they’ll fire me’. The poor guy put his body in physical danger because that’s how much control employers have over us.

The fact that the cops who picked him up at 4am and decided to buy him breakfast and give him a lift rather than detain him for suspicious behaviour is sheer luck, so is the fact that his boss heard what happened to him and decided to give him a car. 

His boss could very easily have heard that he no longer had transport and said “Oh well, I don’t think this is going to work out. Don’t come back tomorrow.” And the poor guy wouldn’t have been able to do anything about it. 

That’s what makes someone look at their broken down car and start walking to work at midnight. The fear of that happening. Because the reason why this story made the news is the fact that this happy ending doesn’t happen to other people. This is the exception. Other people get told “Sorry, this isn’t going to work out.”
