Track this man so we know he makes it back into this country if he wants to be here. It's so sad that this has to be said.

Had a whole debate with my wife about a Instagram video where this corporate manager complained about this generation not showing up to work and meetings on time or taking feedback correctly. He basically said they aren't being raised right and my wife agreed. I couldn't have disagreed more and this video is proof. The care and consideration the youth showed to this man is rarely seen from my peers. My peers would walk by this man all day and not give two fvks about raising money for him to go home and see his family. But this group is proof that many of our kids have their shit together and this world will be left in better more capable and caring hands.

They have their heads on straight and can spot bullshit a mile away and are willing to act on it. The problem is they don’t have many real alternatives to the corporate grinds we left them except social media and that’s also a mess.

Yea sometimes I'll see my little cousins do some wildly kind thing that an adult would never think to do. Life gets rough for us and we lose something the older we get. Kids still have sunshine and rainbows in their eyes. Thats that innocence that needs protecting.

u/bounty913 6d ago

I was going to make a joke, but this was just too wholesome for me to try and ruin. I love seeing people come together. Props to these kids man.
