A US company owner gave an employee a new car after he went the extra mile - 20 miles (32km) in fact, walking all night to make his first day at work.
....
"I can't imagine how many times on that lonely walk... in the middle of the night did he want to turn back. How many times did he wonder if this was the best idea."
"But he walked until he got here! I am in total awe of this young man!" she continued.
Luke Marklin, the chief executive of the moving company, Bellhops, drove from Tennessee over the weekend to meet his new employee.
After chatting over a cup of coffee, Mr Marklin handed Mr Carr the keys to his own 2014 Ford Escape.

Sounds like a good kid with a solid work ethic. We need more people like that in the world. And kudos to Mr. Marklin and everyone who donated to help the kid out. We could use more people like that in the world too.
