“Guy who works in food service admits that he went to work sick and likely spread it to hundreds of people because it’s the only way he could make ends meet, and now he can afford a house but not because of his hard work, but because it went viral on the internet.”
What a heart warming story.
-Work 27 years without a day off, following every advice to “stop being lazy and work”
-Still not being able to afford housing without generous donations
You to can work all your life and almost buy a house.
Worst part is he’s probably better off than most people working at Burger King since his restaurant is unionized.
If you behave like a mule, you will be treated as one. 27 years of work is way over the line of “he didnt have any chance to move on or get promoted”.
“He originally began working at this job as a single father when he gained custody of me and my older sister 27 years ago," his daughter Seryna wrote in a message on the fundraising page. “Then as our family grew and he remarried, he continued to work there because of the amazing health insurance that was provided through this employer because it was unionized. This got all four of his daughters through high school and college with full healthcare coverage.”
“My dad continues to work there, because though he does look young, he is coming up on retirement age and leaving would cost him his retirement," she added.
Absolutely shameful behavior to call someone supporting their children a mule.
Just as others have pointed out, some people will look at this and get angry because his job isn’t “good enough” to earn him a house.
That guy is one of those people.
