Detroit man walks 21 miles to work everyday! Hasn't missed a day of work in 10 years

Re: Detroit man walks 21 miles to work everyday! Hasn't missed a day of work in 10 ye

Here is the replay from last nights let-it-rip

http://www.myfoxdetroit.com/story/2...an-metro-detroit-public-transportation-issues

They just barely touch on how the racist suburb where dude works consistently voted AGAINST have smart buses run in their area. Also if you watch till the end I believe Huel reveals the end game to all of this when he says we need a regional authority even it it mean getting RID OF DDOT.
 
Re: Detroit man walks 21 miles to work everyday! Hasn't missed a day of work in 10 ye

Just to verify the significance of doing away with DDot is since Detroit has the larger population it gets more money from the Fed's. The burbs are making a run for that money EVEN Tho they don't want Detroiters to have access to their communities even if they are working :smh:
 
Re: Detroit man walks 21 miles to work everyday! Hasn't missed a day of work in 10 ye

the average walking speed is 3.5mph....
nigga spends 2 and a half hours walking to work and 4 hours walking back home.
spends damn near a whole work shift walkin.
for 10 fuckin years.
mannnnnnnnnnnnnn.............aint no way in hell.

shit a whiteboy chose to walk a mile and back for a yr to go eat at a fastfood joint and the nig became the face of the chain aka jared for subway yet a blackman walks 20 miles a day for a decade and the company couldn't even give him a free bus pass this can't be life

Some of you mofos have jealously and hate seeping out your pores.

Fucked up mentalities
 
Re: Detroit man walks 21 miles to work everyday! Hasn't missed a day of work in 10 ye

I didn't follow the whole story but this is straight puzzling to me.

Between the money he makes and income tax refunds every year he never made enough to get a cheap car? He hasn't been able to find a better job in 10 years that he can get to on the bus line?

He said he only gets a few hours of sleep a night. I wish the brother well, but he is literally killing himself to make someone else rich who doesn't give a crap.

:smh::smh:

Yea his job ain't shit. In my teen years i worked at burger king after school and they gave a nigga a weekly bus pass
 
Re: Detroit man walks 21 miles to work everyday! Hasn't missed a day of work in 10 ye

Hate?

Are you serious? Man, I feel real pity for this damn man.

I actually have even given much thought to the donations. Shit, he need 'em.

I, and apparently everyone else have been focused on the absurdity of the situation. It makes no fucking sense. You can't convince me that going THAT LONG, w/o even a lemon to drive to work adds up.

Shit is crazy.




:hmm:

You obviously dont live in the midwest. Detroit weather is just as shitty as Chicago a lot of times. The only mofos i see riding bikes around this time of the year are Mexicans. And most of them be looking dumber than a mofo tryna find traction on ice and snow during ah blizzard.

Snow or heat......getting around on foot is a lot easier more times than not.


Most of shade being thrown at this guy in this thread aint based on FACTS. Most of you niggas really aint typing about shit. Yall just tryna find a reason to hate. Ever since those donation numbers got past a quarter of a mill...the hate is becoming thicker and thicker. Shit is actually funny!!

But yeah.....
After seeing all those WHite folks make a quick buck off some stupid shit on that GoFundMe site. I really cant knock James. Like I stated before....I hope he dosnt get pimped out of his donations. But more than likely his is. Them White folks know that he aint got no help...if he did he wouldnt be walking to work. A lot of them are about to reap the benefits of his struggle. Follow the story......

now watch this nigga show up late to work on Monday

Easy bruh, if he show up then that means he didn't get any of that money

Do you honestly think anyone is jealous that he walked miles to work everyday for years?:confused:

I was talking about this story earlier. It sounds like propaganda to me. I don't believe it like that. Maybe its a lot of sensationalism :hmm: 20 miles a day, even in blizzards :lol:

These jobs don't care about their employees.
 
Re: Detroit man walks 21 miles to work everyday! Hasn't missed a day of work in 10 ye

he has no pride. Taking fuckin handouts like a dog. The admirable thing would be to say, "He that doesn't work doesn't eat. So I don't see what all the fuss is about, even though I appreciate the sentiment. Thanks, but no thanks."

But nah, like a graveling dog he'll lap up his water in his little bowl on the floor.

if thats the case, then i take back everything i said.

I just have an personal issue with this shit. I grew up with people applauding people for doing the bare minimum or normal shit, and discouraging people for trying to do something out of the ordinary.

I wouldn't say its hate in most cases, but its like motherfuckers get petrified if you want to do something to come up majorly.

I really tried to stress that in a few of my cousins a few years ago, prior to enrolling in college. I can't control their lives, but i told them that college can be a waste. Its about what you're going for, and how well you do while you're in there.

Gettin' a 2.5gpa in a bullshit major ain't about nothing.

I want to see my people come up. That is a real passion for me. But, its like, a lot of the discussions i've had, and a lot that i hear, it makes me think we've been conditioned to just accept any damn thing. I know everybody can't be on some boss shit...

...but no one can convince me - especially if we worked together - we could be operating on a much higher level.

Once again, i can respect that kind of commitment and discipline, but that kind of commitment and discipline should have definitely been used for something greater than walking to walk every day for ten years. He's shown the capacity to go extremely hard for crumbs...

...why not go extremely hard for a whole slice of the pie?

c/s.
 
Re: Detroit man walks 21 miles to work everyday! Hasn't missed a day of work in 10 ye

this shit should inspire people to find a way to make bread on their own..all this dedication to making somebody else rich and they didn't give him shit in return..no raise, no car, no giving him a free ride nothing..it was outsiders feeling sorry that saved his ass or willing to help him out not his job..if this story never comes out he'd still be walking until the day he died or the job no longer felt he was needed..than they would replace him with somebody else with zero fucks given bout this old cat dedication to making them rich.. stories like this make me say fuck 9-5 jobs, work smarter not harder, put energy into urself and build ur own fucking wealth instead of making somebody else richer while u recieve crumbs and zero rides

Re: Detroit man walks 21 miles to work everyday! Hasn't missed a day of work in 10 ye

Man, we need to stop with this shit, man.

Money is a necessity in this society.

This shit is damn near like oxygen.

It has shit to do with happiness.

Pissing don't make me happy. But, I have to do it.

I grew up hearing people talking about 'Money ain't everything!" Taking joy in people who had money having other problems...

...but they complained non-stopped, and the shit they complained about stemmed DIRECTLY from lack of money.

I know what this world run off of. I used to buy into that shit, too.

I don't want to hear no bullshit ass sayings, trying to make people feel better about lacking financial resources.

I don't need money to make me happy. I need to be able to take care of me and mine, and have something to leave behind.

Would you rather be miserable and broke, or miserable and well off?

No one would prefer to be broke over having money, so why act like its not significant??

I've noticed people who have gone through life without resources, have adopted beliefs that help them cope ... yet the reality is, there is no one who wouldn't prefer to have more resources. Its not even about wanting things. You need to be financially stable even if material shit don't mean anything to you. Shit happens, and the world is a cold fucking place for broke people.

Now, I know this dude has always went in on black women, but has he always been this much of a bootlicker or did he just get this way after Tariq went off on him? I mean, if this story truly is authentic, I'm not exactly gonna hate who helped him but gotdamn, dude went full house negro on this shit.​
 
Re: Detroit man walks 21 miles to work everyday! Hasn't missed a day of work in 10 ye

Wait. So we're going to reward this man for not bettering himself to point he's so broke later in life he can't afford a car?

For staying at a bullshit job for decades with no savings?? A good job and a 401k would have accumulated the same amount. Niggas on here make me wanna vote republican I swear :smh:

There is no such thing as good job unless you own the company, They can fire you at anytime or cut your pay.

We help each other daily. This bootlicker already knows mainstream media wont tell those stories though. Anyway, some coons aren't even worth discussing...glad the old head came up big time. Enjoy the whip and that money.

I live 6 1/2 hours from Chicago Joe......Graduated from the same University as Mcdermott........anyways.
I'm not saying ride a bike in a fucking blizzard Fam. I'm simply implying that during the times when there isn't snow or ice that he could ride a bike. Enough to offset walking every workday he doesn't get a ride. Cmon bruh, this guy clearly hasn't made the best life decisions here, that's undeniable. I'm for anyone who betters themselves whether on their own or by the hand of others, just to be clear. I genuinely hope this is motivation for him (and others) to elevate out of some of life's difficulties.

This passive aggressive butt hurt bozo ...just say his name and stop using this story to validate your bullshit.

Ten years and his employer and co-workers never helped him....apathy is deep
 
Re: Detroit man walks 21 miles to work everyday! Hasn't missed a day of work in 10 ye

Of course him walking that far, and not missing a day ain't normal, that's why its a story.

You shouldn't have even needed to ask that shit.

I'm talking about what the fuck he's doing when he gets to work.

It'd be like if someone wrote a story about someone working as a cashier at a convenience store for 65 years. Its remarkable only because of the length of time...

...but don't try to spin that shit as inspirational.

That shit doesn't inspire me one bit.

Sampson is right, too ....

...they always want to highlight us when we're doing some worker bee shit like this.

Its symptomatic of how they see us as people.

Down deep, they think a motherfucker whose willing to do ALL OF THAT, for crumbs would have made a great, compliant ass slave.

I refuse to sit here and even pretend this is anything but sad...

...UNLESS dude is mentally challenged. I hate to say it, but this does kind of wreak of 'retard determination'. Motherfuckers got all kinds of willpower for some simple ass shit, simply because they lack the capacity to know any better.

People wouldn't provide a car to a nigga who high six figures a year, but lost everything in a series of unfortunate events.

I've seen it a no. of times. They feel like someone has had a 'taste of the grace', so fuck 'em.

They are donating a car this man 'cause they feel sorry for this nigga. How can someone people pity be inspirational?

Would you pay a compliment to a motherfucker that's arrogant?

If so, definitely not as quick as someone who needs a serious self-esteem boost.

Wow........Your perspective is just....wow I have no words
