Wah Tu Sy Employers don’t care how hard you work or how dedicated you are. They only care for they name. I’m just so glad a good man and a college student helped him. It’s truly a blessing from god.

I don’t get that either. Admire his dedication, but a simple secondhand bicycle would have shaved his commute five-fold. Cynicism aside, d’you think he had a plan?
For real. That would save him like 2 hours of walking each day. He could find a used one for about $10-$20 in Detroit. Doesn't matter anymore now that he could afford a lambo.
@Seth Organs even if that was a hundred percent true you still may celebrate as do millions with good intentions towards extending a hand out to those who need it. To do something charitable and go beyond your own self aggrandizement ONCE a year. The absolute LEAST thing you could do is not be an A hole on UA-cam on December 25th.

i wish he had been able to purchase a bike during that time. maybe churches would have being able to get him one or give him a ride. but i'm so glad he has a car and a nice savings now. edit: i just now read he took a bus halfway and wouldn't have been able to take a bike on the bus.

The real story here is that he isn't paid enough to afford a car, the second story here is that the city does not have a robust enough public transit system to get this man to his work place.
Hes a mill opp or a mold maker. He's on $24+ an hour. Its a bollocks story. Hes just shite at managing money. The latter part of your comment fair enough.
@Yeshua is Lord. if hes a millrite that's what he gets and that's what he seems to be doing in the video. Doctors here in the UK make = $35 at the start of their careers. $65 if in a partnership.

Safe Dog Because she has empathy. For someone who is empathic to watch another person get emotional, makes the empathic person also emotional especially when it’s a story about someone who is seen as righteous and/or relatable . I got hella emotional too, especially because of how humble this man comes off and the fact that the community came together to make sure this man got something he deserved then to watch him get overwhelmed by happiness to the point of tears.
@Joel Villarreal I'm not saying it's there probleme I'm just surprised he thinks so highly of his job and yet he hasn't gotten the income from his job or made any plan with them to get some kind of transportation so he can work easier.
You guys don’t really know anything about this particular situation, from what he earns to why he can’t afford a car when (presumably) no one else had a problem finding transportation (unless they’re all making super long commutes). We don’t know the manager, the bottom line, the overhead... He and his fellow workers seem to like the situation, so I doubt it’s particularly unfair. I’m just glad some manufacturer is actually still open in Detroit when almost anywhere else in the country (or outside of it) would make better financial sense.
Ella Neruda oh ok. That makes more sense. I was like “21 miles to work and then 21 miles back home takes a long ass time!” I was skeptical but it is 21 miles round trip is still a lot but more doable
Jason B yes, I wonder why he did not earn enough money to buy a car. He is amazing that he had such a love for his job and the perseverance to continue against all odds.
the pootis flue you sound either very young or very wealthy or maybe both..so, in case you haven't heard [which it sounds like you haven't], jobs a person can actually live on are scarce in america and anything he might find closer would not pay him enough to live on..he was barely able to live on the wages he was already making. so he could *not* afford to quit at the time. it might not be as bad as it is in spain and greece, for instance, but it's still a very dire situation for americans these days...one case in point: a large percentage of wal-mart's employees cannot afford to eat or feed their families without food credits assistance [formerly known as food stamps, but now state debit cards are used]. wal-mart has a practice [like many other corporations who hire, among the 'skilled' workers, also 'unskilled' workers] of giving people hours just shy of what they'd need to qualify for benefits because the corporation does not want to pay for those benefits. even though sam walton's family are super-billionaire$ *and one of the wealthiest families on the planet.*..only the top 2% and some of the supposed 'middle class' are thriving. but many in the middle class are *not* thriving..i actually had a neighbor and the family lost their home to the bank after the business he owned collapsed because his clients could not afford his services anymore - because they also were suffering financially. even people who would qualify for jobs because they had a specific kind of education have tons of competition because of the state of the economy. and they get turned down for jobs that pay less because they are 'overqualified.' because employers fear they'll quit if another, better job opens up for them..and of course, they would quit & *do* quit so they can actually afford to live a decent life. and contrary to popular, ignorant belief, in most cases, only adults who have children can qualify for cash welfare benefits. although in some states pregnant women qualify - and if an adult has a federal disability case pending [SSDI] some states have a temporary cash benefits program the person may qualify for..and all states have a state disability program [SDI]. the details of which, are too complicated to post here re: who gets to stay on it and who can get SDI only temporarily.
What a work ethic this wonderful man has. Never missing a days work come rain or shine or even snow. He’s such an inspiration. Love this story and love the fact that he got a new car to make his journey to work a tad easier. I wish him all the best and the amazing people who helped him.
How can you call a man working at the same place for 13 years, and not being able to afford a car in the richest country the face of the earth has ever seen a "beautiful story"?
Love stories like this.warms my heart.13 years and never missed a day and walks 21 miles to work..thats empressive.he deserves a car and a raise..and the people that pulled together for this man.good people!
You must remember and what I see in lacks of comments on this story. It's not about the money or even the car. It's about commitment, tenacity and love for others. I would rather make minimum wage and work with the right people and company than ever work with people I do not like and a company that doesn't care about me. This man says it all in the beginning I am doing a job I love cause they are like family to me. This is the way all companies should run there businesses! People that make them there money should come first! Profit last.
I will admit I welled up with tears for this man , when Ford dealer just gave him the car , that was really nice , they didn't touch his donations , I can't say enough about how much I really love Ford , they are good people and put out a good product , also this showed there are still good caring people in our country This shows the real commitment and dedication of an American worker willing to go the distance to get to work everyday no matter what I'm glad he got a car , it's well deserved, and the Taurus is a big beautiful reliable car and good on gas I loved this heartwarming story that brought me to tears
Humility, tenacity, perseverance, Thankfulness,....this man had it all. This made me cry. Maybe we all just do Not realize how blessed, rich we all really are. At least there was some good news for a change!
This video makes me cry. I think that I'm luckier than he is because I don't have to walk. I used to ride my bicycle 15 miles to school. Riding in bad weather days is so hard, especially in rainy and windy days. Sometimes I cried a lot but I must try my best to overcome these obstacles in the life in order to see a brighter future !
I can't believe some of these negative comments. First of all bikes can be very expensive too. Secondly, riding a bike in the middle of winter in Detroit is not very safe... Ice people.. come on. Can't you just keep your negativity to yourselves?
Oh dear God, the tears are flowing. You are such a beautiful example of what we all should be like but thank God for those two men and all the donations. I hope and pray he gets a huge raise too, Bless you!
Jonathan Reyes right, the title insinuates he’s walking 42 miles (21 each way) a day, they are really pulling clickbait smh 10 miles is still a feat though especially at his age
I am single and poor myself. I walk mostly or run or take the bicycle to my appointments to save money for transportation so I can relate. The walking kept him sane and healthy too. The donations and the car so well deserved. Bless him.
13 years, never missed a day and walks 21 miles. Give him a godam raise!
Raise? Give him CEO

Give him the state got dammit
Give him the whole company. 😂😂

First thing I thought of.....bike doesn't cost much like goddam
It's difficult to ride a bike in the winter when there is snow and black ice on the side walks and roads and when its windy out
Dam, nobody offered him a ride home or anything and he called them his family? Ok, moving foward...
Rtard people everywhere. Say one thing do another that what it is
No one is obligated to but he has a good heart that's why he calls them a family

This man says it all in the beginning I am doing a job I love cause they are like family to me. This is the way all companies should run there businesses! People that make them there money should come first! Profit last.
That sounds like a charity to me Michael...
I will admit I welled up with tears for this man , when Ford dealer just gave him the car , that was really nice , they didn't touch his donations , I can't say enough about how much I really love Ford , they are good people and put out a good product , also this showed there are still good caring people in our country
This shows the real commitment and dedication of an American worker willing to go the distance to get to work everyday no matter what
I'm glad he got a car , it's well deserved, and the Taurus is a big beautiful reliable car and good on gas
I loved this heartwarming story that brought me to tears
James Robertson is the hardest working man in America.
President Obama needs to give him some kind of Letter of Appreciation...
People like him deserve so much more!
I’ve never seen these types of videos in the uk, and people say Americans aren’t good, in my eyes they’re life savers!
@@antoniov5701 Are you calling that man blacky?...
Humility, tenacity, perseverance,
Thankfulness,....this man had it all. This made me cry. Maybe we all just do
Not realize how blessed, rich we all really are. At least there was some good news for a change!
There's a lot of people out there like James Robertson... let's find them too. Good Man. ✌
If only my parents could see me n"HE SAID IF ONLY HIS PARENTS COULD SEE HIM NOW"
Thanks, we were all there for that. We know.
This video makes me cry. I think that I'm luckier than he is because I don't have to walk. I used to ride my bicycle 15 miles to school. Riding in bad weather days is so hard, especially in rainy and windy days. Sometimes I cried a lot but I must try my best to overcome these obstacles in the life in order to see a brighter future !
this is the true definition of being humble and grateful for what you have. God bless this man
Dam that's like walking from Queens to Brooklyn. Hes a trooper. Glad it worked out for him. God is good.
Amen
I have learned so much by this short clip. James is amazing and the banker and the student equally fabulous!! Blessing you all. xox.
People like James are the real salt to the earth type of people.
That is very loyal and sincere. I salute this man with both hands.
Oh i see people intervened. That was a blessing.
"Ive been blessed to do, what Ive been blessed to do."i hope you have many years to keep doing what you do!
All this hatred in this world...and to see their is still loving caring folks out there. So great to see! God bless ya brother. Well deserved :)
Tears of joy...thanks to this people who helped him..god bless you all
I can't believe some of these negative comments. First of all bikes can be very expensive too. Secondly, riding a bike in the middle of winter in Detroit is not very safe... Ice people.. come on. Can't you just keep your negativity to yourselves?
How can a bike be expensive? Is it made of gold?
please stop yall
Well said. James Robertson didn't focus on the negative, He played the hand that God dealt and knew God would somehow reward him in the long run.
@@GazzaDazzle Expensive is relative, 100$ to you might be harder to get for someone else

This man sets such a wonderful example for all. So much respect for him.
And that is?
@@andrewcruz3837 Hard work and diligence don't do squat by themselves, but being noticed is the most important thing to your survival.
21 Miles Each Way or 21 Miles Each Day, title misinforms...
I thought it was 21 each way from the title but each day from the video. All for the clickbait
its called Fake News, read up on it
Killn walking 21 miles a day is a bitch shut the fuck up lol
Clickbait bullshit man
10.5 ONE WAY AND 10.5 BACK HOME
There's a special place in heaven for those who have a beautiful kind heart
Guy: “if only my parents could see me now!”
Moderator: “saying, if only his parents could see him now!”
That was so touching
Remember when your parents said things like.."back in my day we used to walk miles just to get somewhere in the blistering cold"......yeah, this guy!!

Oh dear God, the tears are flowing. You are such a beautiful example of what we all should be like but thank God for those two men and all the donations. I hope and pray he gets a huge raise too, Bless you!

The factory only use his story for publicitie.
the KIND PEOPLE AND THE STUDENT ARE TO PRAISE HERE,
BLESS THAT MAN.
There’s is no excuses! Mad respect ✊
0:29 - The title is wrong. It's 21 miles round-trip... over 10 miles each way.
Jonathan Reyes they say more than 10 miles which add an extra mile to it combined there and back
@@Geo-hv7of - I mean that the title says he walks 21 miles "each way", not "each day".
Jonathan Reyes right, the title insinuates he’s walking 42 miles (21 each way) a day, they are really pulling clickbait smh 10 miles is still a feat though especially at his age
PaXx Midnite no the title insinuates that he walks 21 miles in total, both ways. Hence (each way)
Jonathan Reyes over 10 miles each way rounding that up to 21
Oh God I cried...thank you to all these people who helped James Robertson Godbless you all
him: "I walk 21 miles a day"
bicycle: ...
bicycle: Am I a joke to you?
God told him to walk to work, then God gave him a car. If he were to ride a bike no one would care.
The ground is Icy. Do you want the man to die?
This was actually one of the greatest things I’ve seen
Really? There are children in the third world walked every day many miles to school and no media talk about it.
“He who works all day has no time to make money” John Rockefeller
Man get the hell outta here with those dumb quotes lol
what does that even mean.
It means u don't have time to be a straight up crook, and make ur money stealing from someone else.
bruce power congratulations!!!!!
You win internet dummy of the month, keep it up and you’ll be on your way to moron of the year
@@michaelgrimes5588 damn you react so emotional tampon boy
Unconditional love and kindness. This man is who we all need to be. Despite everything against him, he is HUMBLE.
13 year's, never missed a day at work. How come the company has never recognized, and bought him a car. Well done sir.
I am single and poor myself. I walk mostly or run or take the bicycle to my appointments to save money for transportation so I can relate. The walking kept him sane and healthy too. The donations and the car so well deserved. Bless him.
No more complaining for me this guy is real motivation 😔
This made me cry thank god for all those beautiful people
