The CEO discovers his employee is homeless, watch what happens next 

Yesss.

Hell yes

agreed

rich mean giving..

Wait

This is probably the most important comment in the thread.

Real talk. Hope he did "do better" for his employees in general. Pay folks a living wage.

@@prn72271 She had a kid young. That stuff builds on you. The real concern is the lack of societal safety nets and lack of social programs.

Something is wrong with the local government of the city you live and work in if you have to stay in a homeless shelter for two years and never receive any support or housing assistance, especially while working. No children should ever be homeless for two years. Thats a disgrace to their citys leaders. Shane on them. In Denver no families go have to stay in shelters for two years. After two to three months with personalized support of case management from social services residents of Denver are qualified to receive housing vouchers. I know because I did it!!! Live where you love to be and I love Denver not just for its beauty and progressive laws but because they city loves all its residents and has more resources available for them than anywhere I've ever seen, and I've lived in four countries and over six states!!! None can compare to Colorado!!!!

@@prn72271 she was paid a living wage, but her circumstances were very very poor. SHe was a single mother raising 3 infants in new york city. Housing is insanely expensive and taking care of the needs of infants is also incredibly pricey.

As long as she keeps getting the free handouts she'll be fine, plus, after claiming racism against the White boss for treating her like everybody else at work, was a great career strategy.

​@@WilfChadwick wtf bro

@@poche451 you look delightful, thank you for cheering up my day with your image. Lovely. If I could invent my ideal someone... ps. She had a job, kids and no father(s) around. Government benefits, tax rebates and she's homeless, c'mon! You know that's a bs concentrate she's selling. You're gorgeous😘

@@WilfChadwick Because that is how America paints women of color. I have been in her shoes. Working, child and alone. Working 2 or 3 jobs. It was a fight to reach a point where I could thrive with only one job. Trust me because she is working, she doesn't qualify for handouts. You don't know where the father is. He could be a deadbeat or he could have passed or whatever. The point is, she works and has a pleasant spirit, she is keeping her children together and raising them and keeping them in school. What is amazing, she used her story to encourage someone else and not whine about how life is unfair to her.

@@magsbayou ok, whatever

I really appreciate that he organised for a financial advisor as well. A small but valuable touch. Not to say that she couldn't manage that much money, but you just don't know, and it really shows that he really thought about setting her up to succeed.

The fact that no one realizes HE is responsible for the wages of his associates and the fact one of his associates is homeless despite working full time, is just beyond me. No where does he increase the general salary. HE is responsible for decent salaries for his employees. He just saved himself a lot of money on union busting. But cudos to his PR team for this PR piece.

@@fazsaeed i think the having 3 kids is the reason she cant afford to rent a place, not the wage he pays, it sucks but a entry level job isnt a job to raise a single kid and definitely not 3...

Hope she serve God if she isn't already serving it we glad for her to get the help but she need the Lord to sustain her fully in Jesus name Amen

@@fazsaeed good point no one should ever help anyone!

Truly a champion

When a entitled woman says she is a boss as bitch, show them this queen.

Bless the boss for helping her out??? The CEO is the bloody reason she is homeless and lives in poverty. If the boss would just pay his employees pay a decent wage... They wouldn't be homeless, apparently her wage is so bad she has moments she can't afford food. Anyone working shouldn't be going hungry and if they are going hungry you need to have a deep look at how your organisation is treating it's employees because I can assure you that if she's going through that more employees are going through it. Helping 3 out of your 1000s of employees for a tv show doesn't deserve the praise. These bosses need to start paying the workers wages they can actually live on rather than just survive.

So nice that she is being looked after. Lets just hope she stops having kids.

@@leontinemccain5170 whilst i don't disagree with what you're saying, the problem isn't with the boss, it's with the minimum wage laws. so you should really be complaining to the government. the boss hasn't broken any laws. he doesn't 'have' to help anyone. the fact he did means he's gone beyond his legal responsibilities. if he paid all his employees to a you're describing, the business wouldn't be viable. you're enjoying low retail prices in america BECAUSE of the low wages these people earn. so if you want these people to earn more money, you'll be pay A LOT more for everything.

Yeah me too, Cried a lot.. He's a wonderful Boss!

He gets to know how the people who work for him really work to keep the business going.

Yup. This got me emotional

Me 3. Tears are rolling in Hijuelas, Chile, too. Next time I go home, I am going to stop at that store. I love buying sporting goods. That woman was truly deserving; she nailed it, she deserved the praise. And the fact that she was homeless, yeah, tears, tears, tears. That was wrong, but the CEO made it right. Wow!

had me in tears too

Me too

@LolaClo I agree

Me too!!!! So Wonderful Woman and Boss!

She deserved this step after so strongly believing in herself and giving love and respect to all even in her dire situation.

LOL this is so obv scripted

True I just wish they had a less annoying policy than that GAME BS. Just makes people who work there lives more stressful and make customers go elsewhere that annoying employees won't bug you.

@@karyo-tq3fb are u dumb? Heartless

@karyo it was a great script then

Well scripted or others would have run to help

I’d say, this man is who I would love to be, make yourself the boss 😉

@@ItsMeAlbi 0:-)

Anyone would collapse if someone said they were giving you 250,000. Doesn't matter if you have a million in the bank or you are homeless. 250k is a massive amount of money.

@@pbufh I certainly wouldn't collapse.

@@pbufh a millionaire defs would not collapse to a 250k check....

Maybe he should just pay her a decent wage. But what's the fun in that. You don't get to show of what a good person you are...

@@carstenhansen5757 she just got 250k and now gets 14k monthly, fuck a decent wage, put me on that show, change my life

@@maxownzor2thelawnmower776 hehe. If only all people could get on that show. But than it would loose it's value, and we're back to. Just pay people a decent wage.

That really touched me. He got right down there on the floor with her. What a huge huge heart

I was laughing and crying so hard at that. 😂😂😭😭

​@@crackerjackrappr U know ,I know and we know

that’s not just a boss, that’s a real leader

@Mythic how you can know how much he payes them. she can be homeless coz of debts and other stuff

Maybe you should do a little research on him, he may not be that great of a Person afterall.

He's not just a boss, he's a leader.

@@aberdeen1021 nobody is, but she gave him good advice and had no reason to.

yes, very sweet of her to be giving such encouraging advice to people on starting a new successful business for themselves..but, do you honestly believe that she would be a person you would want or would take any advice from ?? she is supportive, that much is true but, shes also a dreamer. so for a few kind words she had spoken, now completely justifies all that money in return ? hmmmm

Truly. I've finally noticed the difference.

Until you know they're going bankrupt

Mehul Srivastava yes I did hear about this but think the competition has changed so much now.

@@adstix so can the store be found online still?

@@J-Andrade-4 are they still working?

@@Trefuckor963 they made an online store. They are no longer a brick and mortar store

Honestly I believe that this is a display of Melodrama just for the sake of ratings. I can see giving her a raise if she truly has earned it and cares about her employees and her customers. But the 250 grand… that's grotesque, I'm good at my job and compassionate to customers, and I can barely afford to live in my one bedroom apartment. So I should get.. maybe.. a $50K gift maybe from my boss, right? Edit: the CEO basically paid for a house for her because she wanted to her kids to have a yard. This is all so melodramatic, what about the other rank-and-file employees who have college loans, ill parents, who are also struggling to make it? And she gets a promotion AND a windfall, just for being a reliable (and caring and squared away) manager? So many workers fit that bill, why was she living in a homeless shelter to begin with.. This was done for ratings and publicity. Sheesh

@@Defender78 not all those managers are willing to put their face on national tv

Completely

@@Defender78 As I said in other comments, $250K in the DC area is not enlugh to buy a house. You can think it's all about ratings, but it this case, it was not. I have lived in a DC shelter and it ain't great and that's an understatement, so to have young children in a shelter is a whole different level of demeaning. A pessimistic person would not understand how someone can still be uplifting and joyful in spite of life's adversities. I have been in customer service for years and I treat people with respect. You never know where your blessing will come from. In teaching my children that lesson, a man who met my son as a child put away $10K in an interest-bearing trust fund for his college. The man did the same thing for my daughter. Why? Because I taught my children to be nice by example.

@@Defender78 you sound like you own a business and have employees and saw that giving 250K was a waste of money. People like you should rethink your mindset.

They don't always. We have to make it happen.

Dude, its staged. Its not like she didnt see the operator filming them all time lol

​@@therminator8289They usually give them an excuse as to why the cameraman is there. They don't outright say they're on Undercover Boss.

Don't get too excited. It's rare.

wai, how come there are cameras all over the place?

Peter Bartos they set it up as they are filming another kind of show.

Her positivity, cheerfulness, and service spirit, in spite of what she has been going through, is more than "good" :)

She’s a good egg who deserved this

She deserves it all

i started to cry too that guy is for real ! amen 😀

Well the company went bankrupt so not really how you run a business

I cryd too.

@@kenkrak4649 to be not doing great in business. And still give her 250k. Says alot abt the man. He probably has multiple business and property management

Its nice that you see it that way, but I don't see it as a nice feel good story but more of a NIGHTMARE. There are still thousands of workers who are, or were, just like her who are still suffering. Its not every day where the boss of a company like this who makes 700 million dollars a year (And yet the employee's live in homeless shelters) will just give out money to their workers

mate I am sorry you already got wrong mindset to be saying that you will never be rich thats wrong way to look at it.

@@kawazaki23 bro, what I meant was that I don't think I'll be as rich as the gentleman in the video. I'm very British in that I'm self-deprecating because I don't want to be told I'm on my high horse but I work hard, my friend. Truly, I want to fulfil my potential and even though I'm not rich, I still try and help others if and when I can. I thank you for your comment, though :)

Hey man, never say never. You gotta manifest it if you believe in yourself.

@@patriciasasmita9499 thank you for your words of encouragement. I'm starting to feel maybe I should have worded my comment a bit better but it's lovely to hear from people far and wide. I hope you have a great future ahead of you and here's hoping we get to be a blessing to other people!

Yes. May Allah guide him to the right path! He has a good heart ❤️

I was surprised. I started typing comments downing these CEOs. I stopped on his. I've watched about all of them. Seems fake and kinda like a marketing thing to make the company look good in the end. Here's 10g for school and a Honda civic. Smh. This guy put his money were his mouth was. I'm sure it was a bit to shine good on his company but as humble as he was, especially him scooting on the floor and Making fun of himself. Out of all of them he's the won the Greatest CEO award. I understand giving 10g for you and 10 for a charity that takes most of it , buying someone a car isn't a small thing. This man changed her and her kids fucking life period. I wish there was more like him. 👍 I don't know you but love your fat walress scooting ass.

The sad part is after all these years he had to file for bankruptcy :/

​@@Blaster-Rat really?? that's sad

What a beautiful woman. Gave me so much grounding today.

That's why women are mentally stronger

she is so beautiful and brave, her kids must be proud of her, what a warrior

@@MrsDuck356 ok, tell the navy seals that. What a ridiculous statement. Just because some men in your life might be lazy slobs and you see one video about a homeless mother doesn’t automatically mean that women are mentally stronger. A more apt statement would have been, this woman is mentally stronger than anybody I know, or something to that effect.

@@TubaTones women still are. Go cry about it

I can't afford to disagree.

That's really sad, but he sounded and looks like he had health issues, sad... 😢

Yes. When my father started his firm and they had some financial setbacks, he and his partners all went on 1/2 salary for a time so that none of their employees would be laid off or have salaries decreased. He said “being an employer is a sacred trust you have with your employees that their financial wellbeing is in your hands. Even with our belts tightened, we still live a more abundant life than most of the world. We need be grateful and remain humble.”

I hope she is doing well still.

Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for this comment! I saw so many fake things over the internet/television that I got so suspicious and I can't really enjoy emotional moments when they are real. And I like enjoying them. It doesn't matter to me if you know her (I genuinely believe you do). What matters to me is to have something to cling my hope onto.

Thanks for your comment 💥

@@upsidedahead👈 I fail to understand one thing, these bloody morons hv no homes living in shelters or bus stops, but obsession for sex is beyond their thinking.

Come on such shits shld stitch up their Fallopian tubes N think abt their career so that the innocent kids can hv a comfortable life.
