Worker Who Walked 20 Miles To Work Given Car By Company’s CEO
When Walter Carr’s car broke down the night before starting a new job, he didn’t call in. He just prepared to go to work much earlier…at midnight… on foot! The story only begins there.
While walking, local police picked him up. They took Carr to breakfast and drove him the remainder of the trip to his first job for Bellhops Moving.
During his day of moving, the customer learned his story and posted it to Facebook.
She also set up a GoFundMe page to raise a goal of $2,000 to help repair his car. The page has now raised over $30,000.
Okay, now if that wasn’t enough, the CEO of Bellhops Moving heard about the saga as well. He drove from Tennessee to Alabama to meet Walter, and then surprised him by giving him personal Ford Escape.
We've all seen the amazing story shared by Jenny about one of our bellhops, Walter Carr, but many have asked if we have any video from the moment CEO @LukeMarklin thanked Walter for the perseverance he demonstrated on his first day w/ @BellhopsMoving #TheWorldNeedsMoreWalters pic.twitter.com/mXrvI2JQoP
