I was a bartender and a Train Conductor and I was able to sign to my deaf customers because my aunt is deaf and she taught me as a kid how to communicate with her. It's pretty cool when a hearing impaired customer discovers that you can communicate with them. The sense of relief (especially the traveling public) because they're trying to get somewhere and the fear of ending up in the wrong place must be frightening. It also helps me help them. I recommend everyone especially POLICE take sign courses. Did you know that the deaf are terrified of police? Because they cannot hear an officers commands they are at higher risk of being shot or arrested. So, to be a police officer, I feel that being able to communicate with the deaf is important and one class could make all the difference.
I never would have thought of that. Thank you for bringing up that point. I think we all need to learn to be more tolerant and understanding. More education is necessary to understand all aspects of life.
@kim cho exactly my point. Imagine being in a country where you cannot understand a word of their language, Now, further complicate the inability to understand. Not only can you not understand their words, but you can't understand the tone of their voices. You can't decipher the urgency in their command, the panic in their tone of voice, warning you that you're making them nervous because you're not complying. (Because you can't- you don't know what they want). You can't communicate. And you reach into your pocket for your phone to translate for you... the officer misunderstandings your movements because his experience with you is that you're non-compliant. What happens next? More often than not, in a panic, you're shot. One college class American Sign Language (ASL) could save lives, help officers communicate with the deaf and helping the officer by him or her not having to live with killing an innocent person just because they couldn't hear you.
This goes for medical professionals as well, I can fingerspell (which is the most basic sign language skill that honestly everyone should know) and when i had surgery and couldn't speak afterwards, I tried communicating with the nurses that way as I was waking up from anesthesia, and no one could really understand me. It was very scary and I can't imagine how much scarier it'd be if I couldn't even hear what the nurses were saying.
@@clarencesmith467 thank you. I also timestamp a 45 second video so people dont have to wait for it. My sacrifices have gone unsung until you. Thank you, citizen.
My youngest daughter had a deaf girl in her grade 4 class, the entire class was taught basic sign language. The kids were keen to learn so they could chat silently in class. One of her friends has gone on to be a speech therapist for the deaf community and married a deaf guy, her matron of honour was the deaf girl from primary school.
Not trying to be a dick or anything, but can't deaf people just write down what they want, and show the message to the other person? Or type it on their phone, then show the phone to the other person?
@@Vagabond_EtrangerI’m not in the deaf community but I imagine that writing things on a phone/tablet is cumbersome and signing is much easier if you’ve learned.
@@Vagabond_Etranger you're not a dick! but you should google it or youtube it! there's ton of simple and interesting videos online about the deaf community and why sign language has been such a vital part of deaf culture and communications!
this is a really beautiful story. i wish our class had been taught sign language, unfortunately the deaf/blind kids in school were very socially isolated from others in my school :( i think back on how horrible our special needs programs were, i was part of the reading program in elementary and i saw some awful things! I'm so happy to hear how positive the community your daughter had.
I already applaud him for having that huge interest with sign language, you basically take that course not for yourself but to help others communicate like he did here.
@@all-caps3927 you do realize as a human you can still personify something like trust, humanity, nobility etc? Just letting you know m8 it’s simple grammar
@@yjpaperboy173 no you wouldn’t say personify, you would say demonstrates or represents, personifies literally means making something (which isn’t a human) human, so in that context it doesn’t work for a human. It’s simple grammar m8
Everyone’s talking about how this seems like a simple act and stuff but y’all don’t understand how hard it can be for deaf ppl these days, I’ve never met a person that can sign and imagine the ppl who are deaf you know, it is an awesome thing that he took it upon himself to learn sign just because, more people should do that
Kaylen. I took ASL in college for a year but I forgot a lot since I stopped using it unfortunately. I still know all the letters / numbers etc, but I’d be scared to sign with a deaf person. I really enjoyed it though after learning for a year :)
Ethan Naka I think learning it even once is awesome and creates a basis of communication but don’t be scared to sign anything you know bc i know they’ll see the effort and it would be greatly appreciated
I've never met anyone who can sign but i've also never met a deaf person. They could always resort to a dry erase board or a notebook for short interactions. Full on conversations would be a bit more inconvenient, but it's still an option.
i bet the bosses would be making way more money if they paid for the employees to learn basic sign language, so why not? they are dealing with general public after all, at least they could be taught hiw to do the most basic and needed signs
During Covid, I had my kids learn ASL just for the heck of it and something to learn. We only know one deaf person in our church; her mother signs the whole Mass for her. It's been inspiring to watch. I feel like ASL is something that should be pushed more to learn, for the deaf community.
I served a deaf customer at work. Well her daughter was deaf. I saw her signing to her mom while in line so I told my crew I’d take care of it. I said “welcome, my name is Scott. I’m learning ASL, so please sign slowly, and I’m sorry if I get a few words wrong” Well the daughter just lit up with delight, and the mom appreciated me making an effort for trying to communicate. I got by thankfully, i won’t deny that I struggled but the mother helped me with some words I wasn’t too sure with
Wow Scott, thanks for sharing this just made my day and I realized I can do more for people who are deaf! I recently started learning ASL myself so I can communicate with people who are deaf as well. I know I'm advertising my channel now but I would love have you around so may I suggest it to you? It is all about Kindness and spreading joy because Kindness is for everyone! I hope to see you around- have a nice day! 😊
Then lose your trust in humans and despise them when you truly learn how ugly mankind can be. when I was a child I was scared of ghost but as I grew older I've realized humans are scarier.
Grammar Police. That is SERIOUSLY true..Humans are MUCH worst than ghosts.. ghosts can be visually scary but humans.. oh God don't even get me started.
I'm not a millennial.. I was born in '88. But honestly I think this whole thing is being blown out of proportion. I don't think this kid should be commemorated for doing exactly what he's supposed to do with a tool that he was fortunate enough to pick up. I mean to me that's sort of like a parent being rewarded for taking care of their kid. But people are acting like this dude ran inside a burning building with no regard for his own life, to save a baby. I mean.. If he didn't use his skills to help that guy, then he would be an asshole right? So why is everyone making a big deal about a guy doing what he very well should be expected to do
It's great he learned a new skill. To communicate with a relative minority group. Well done, truly. Though the media of course jumps on this as a supreme accomplishment. Keep it up the learning thing people of the US. :)
This is truly a heart warming story. Learning a whole new language just for the small majority that he could help whilst doing so. Every little helps. Well done Caleb!
I worked at a gas station that is still located near a school for the deaf. I wasn't previously aware, but I put 2 and 2 together after a few weeks of starting. I can't sign for the life of me, but I learned how to sign 'thank you' as a way of making sure they knew I appreciated them as customers. The way their faces lit up each time still pulls at my heart.
This is not only just humble but simply beautiful. Such a young and thoughtful man. His parents have raised him right. Thankyou Caleb for making others feel integrated x
what I think is sad is how this is considered kindness, it would be the same as if a Spanish person came in and someone who spake Spanish had to communicate with them and take their order, I mean something similar happened to me, I was helping run a booth at a local rodeo and this little girl cam over and I started to tell her the rules for the game but her mom said that she was deaf, so than I told her the rules in sign language, but that wasn't kindness that was cool lol, I love finding people who know sign language, it's more popular than you'd think
If you want to see more Taco Bell employees, go to a Taco Bell. As for the act of kindness, it was merely him doing his job. The fact that it is commended so highly as it is is baffling.
We don't need more people like him, we NEED to be like him It's a shame that such "basic awareness" like this had to went viral when this is what EVERY people should have do daily
What's so cool about this young man is his modesty. He seems genuinely surprised that this video was even recorded, let alone went viral, and that people were noticing. In his mind, he simply felt privileged to have a chance to use his sign language skills, but he didn't realize that his professionalism, kindness, and patience would not go unnoticed. The world needs more true winners like this guy. I know this video is kinda old now, so I hope that he's found his niche and that he is continually being appreciated.
If you think about it, yeah, it's surprising that people make a huge deal about this. He works in customer service and a customer spoke a language that he happens to know. So he has 2 choices, either speak in their language, or not speak it and be an asshole even though he knows how. So he pretty much just chose to not be an asshole and did the job he's paid for. I suppose it's a better news story than all the negative stuff, but yeah, what is the big deal lol.
@@mogdor I think you just might have a more negative perspective, it isn't a big deal to be kind, it should just be apart of their job. We all just want to share in something that makes us happy and feel bonded as a humanity, especially in these times where many people havent seen their friends or family for a year or so
@@sapphire3735 Yes it puts positive vibes out there, better than a lot of news these days and that's definitely a good thing. It's just that the logical side of me can't help taking a purely objective look at the situation. The human side of me thinks the reaction is great. The logical part of me thinks it's absurd lol.
@john wallace It's a nightmare for those of us who are hard of hearing, that's for sure. Thankfully, my hearing issues are mild enough that with more focus and practice, I've been able to breeze by just getting the gist of what people are saying, but I still have to avoid loud environments. Otherwise, my biggest crutch is gone and all I hear is a blur of indistinguishable noises with nothing to help give some clarity.
@john wallace yeah it’s horrible. As a deaf person myself it’s added an extra level of isolation. But I get by by asking ppl to remove their masks so I can lip read.
I learned ASL after I had an interaction with a customer who kept writing everything on our sticky notes and so the next time he came in I was able to communicate with him just a little through sign and I could tell he was so much happier and at ease knowing he didn’t need to write everything down that he needed and over time I kept learning more signs and was able to communicate with all of my deaf customers better. Good on that boy for being super polite and diligent with that man.
Thank you too. For the same reasons. Your act of kindness gave your customer so much comfort, 1) to know you care enough to make the effort 2) that he has somewhere to go and feel normal.
More schools should offer Sign Language as an elective, my daughter took it for 2 yrs., I wish she would have continued. What most people don't realize is, not only is it helping hearing impaired people, but, it is considered a 2nd language for most jobs and because there is a need your chance of being hired is greater....
Rio DJeNIRO I learnt ASL as a LOTE because I didn't want to do Chinese or Spanish, however I already knew rather complex ASL before that because I was friends with a kid who was *fortunately* (some say it's a misfortune but I disagree) deaf, but I got better at ASL grammar and got faster at fingerspellings plus as extra credit I learnt the BSL/Auslan fingerspellings too idk why but I got a 95 so I guess it was worth it
CoolAsFreya I learned from a schoolmate who was born deaf, then had surgery that made her hear. Since she had gone most of her life thus far deaf, and had 2 deaf parents, she knew sign language.
Kay J that's great, you will have a bonding experience together. You are probably bonded already....but I think every little bit helps, specially these days
As a tribute to this amazing young man, I’m going to do something I’ve always wanted to do and that is to finish learning to sign. God bless you for inspiring so many people, Caleb!
In England, where I went to primary school, they taught us sign language at a young age. I remember we each had to learn to sign a story every week for the class. Not sure if its a standard across all schools here
My school actually has an ASL class and counts it as a credit I wanted to switch from french to there but mother dearest wouldnt let me :(( But Im learnin it on my own time lmao
@@johnnyjoestar7143 nope it's not standard unfortunately I went to 2 primary schools, 2 high schools and 1 college it wasn't until college that I was able to go to a sign language class and even then it was an enrichment class, luckily I was taught some basic sign language from my mum and nan from an early age but none of my friends who went to the same high school (came from about 5 different primary schools) none of them had sign language even as an option, it's pretty sad really, in my first primary school they had a french teacher come in and teach us some french rather than sign language
Kenneth Ho Came in the comments section to say exactly what you did. I've taken a few years of ASL myself and studied Deaf culture. There is a SERIOUS misconception as to how Deaf people interact in this world. Hearing people can make every effort to communicate with them but most choose not to. Deaf people can't do the same in return which leaves the hearing more lost than anyone because most people don't realize the importance of learning the language.
I mean its happened several times in the past. www.nydailynews.com/news/national/group-deaf-mute-friends-stabbed-bar-thug-mistakes-sign-language-gang-signs-article-1.145439 abcnews.go.com/US/deaf-man-stabbed-sign-language-mistaken-gang-signs/story?id=18213488
I wanted to cry because he was so kind, caring and helping, not a lot of people would do this, some in fact would be rude, but this video made me happy :):)
I worked at Taco Bell for 7 years and worked my way up to be a manager and I can say I would be so proud if he was one of my employees. Edit just to clarify this was when I was younger and I was able to save and put myself through college to become a pharmacy technician.
I love how Caleb finds it fun to just speak with others. I also find it fun when I can do that with Japanese but imagine just the thrill you get when you find someone who speaks sign language out of nowhere. It’s not a common language to find
It’s also respectful if you’re in another country or even an establishment run by someone who doesn’t speak English natively. My husband and I go to Asian restaurants ALOT and my husband will ask what language they speak if it’s our first time. Each time after that he greets, thanks and says good bye in their native language. We’ve never had an occurrence of any employee at these places being upset. They always seem very happy to hear him speak their language (even if it’s a little bit) and they’re always very kind to us
You Speak Japanese!!?? How Kool and Awesome is that! Now THAT is difficult! Learned French in High School -- but it goes away without practice! Don't let your Gift slip away!
My 11 year old son is in the low spec of autism, he his speech perfect, but learned sign language at a young age and nailed it.. him and I were at a Home Depot for a copper fitting in the plumbing department and he noticed a deaf lady who was struggling trying to communicate with a associate..he is very shy but offered to help her and she got what she needed.. she gave him the "hug" of his life ...so proud 😊
Marnix ignorantly tries to stereotype autism, ends up looking like a village idiot. My son and I are both on the spectrum (neither of us "screech"). I became a surgeon and he wants to become a biological engineer. What have you done with your life besides look stupid trying to troll others?
He sits behind his keyboard being a jerk because he wouldn't have the guts to say it to your face. He thinks he's tough and smart but while you and your dear son will make something of your life he'll be just another scumbag that trolls the internet while collecting unemployment and end up all alone so you will have the last laugh on this idiot
what exactly does that mean lmao? I'm 19 now and I gotta tell ya, most of the people I know around my age are vastly different from one another. what makes an 18 year old average?
BrokenGod Ent. Good question. It definitely could be subjective but I was thinking that the average 18 year old is typically lazy and not “always looking for something productive to do” like the kid in this video
sarah choi A bunch of 18 years are seeking new things that are productive to do everyday🧐🧐My 18 year old sister has a job, and she even took over paying my parents light bill.
I helped quite a few people that are deaf and know how some of these signs they meant at times, Caleb’s 100% right, it’s about serving the customers that gets lost and confused about certain things, Caleb’s doing a great job and should do this more often!
Way to go Caleb . Not many young people to today do that . I know both you made that person day and they will never forget it . Plus your family and family must be very proud of you . We need more young men like you in world will to help
I love this. I started learning sign language specifically for one of my customers at work. She was so excited when I started signing to her for the first time. Even though it was just “I am learning sign language” and “take care”
You NEED to READ This YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF” From the Ancient Semitic Scroll: "Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3) Ancient Semitic Direct Translation Yad - "Behold The Hand" He - "Behold the Breath" Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
This was a beautiful thing to see in 18-year-old young adult communicating with a deaf person we need more people like that and we need training in these establishments so that we could make customers feel comfortable as they're placing their orders for the day this is what we need to see more of
My friends Grandpa was deaf and she lived with him. I wanted to come over but I was kinda nervous because I couldn’t communicate with him So I learned sign language in 6months I never told her I was learning Then I asked to go over and when I went over her grandpa introduced himself in sign language and I did sign language my friend was in shock And then I started talking about myself in sign language and she started tearing up I told her this whole six months I was learning sign language. She started crying because she said I’ve never had a friend who has done that ♥️
Unknown maddy I thought it was so beautiful that you went through that much trouble to be able to communicate with him. I’m so glad your friend was so touched as well. You did such a wonderful thing for both of them.
whats impressive? That he speaks a 2nd language and responded in it to a customer that only spoke that language? Would you praise a spanish speaking american for helping someone that only speaks spanish out?
@@jaret6661 Its the same in the sense that he just picked something at "random" in highschool to study as his second language. He didnt pick sign language to help people like the video and the entire deluded comment section says. He literally said himself that he picked it because he didnt just want to pick spanish like everyone else. The fact that this gets broadcasted on the news is laughable
I surprised a customer in Wal-Mart by translating what one deaf person was trying to say to an employee. I got a bear hug afterword's, my good deed was complete
I also went to a signlanguage course when I was younger. I can imagine how much it means to someone TO BE missunderstood all the time and then this young boy starts signing to him. Awesome!❤
I began to learn Spanish back in the 1980s. My friends all made fun of me. Now, I speak it at a very near native level. I cannot tell you how many times that I've suddenly found myself in a position needing to use my Spanish to help someone communicate. It is so emotionally rewarding that it defies description. I have never regretted learning that second language. It is the same when anyone wants to learn ANY language and this includes ASL. So, when I watched Caleb here in this video, I could completely identify with him and admire/respect him too.
Your 'friends' aren't real ones, willing to tear you down. They're probably jealous and they should be, you were willing to expand your mind and they weren't. Bilingualism or being a polyglot is amazing! Everyone in the world can be your friend
I'm so PROUD of you!! I tried Spanish, but had a block,; learned to speak French but let it slip away due to lack of practice! DON'T LET YOUR GIFT SLIP AWAY!!
I remember one time I went to jack in the box with my dad (he’s deaf) and the worker knew sign language and helped him and that workers not viral he was a very nice guy aswell
My mom is deaf and i started to pick up things from her and her friends when i was 4 and i am now 11 so im not the best at it cause most if my life is around speaking and humans talk alot in just a day but im still learning just for my mom. 💞
Lilly Bear hey I'm also 11 and I'm trying to learn it my grandma is also deaf but she passed away when I was younger so I don't know her that much and learning it is interesting good luck
People are missing the point lol if it had been myself in his shoes I would have been clueless and this man would not have received fair treatment. The simple things.
@@oahuhawaii2141 people don't want to do that. Because it's out of the way and "disruptive" or "takes too long". Do you know how many times I've been kicked out for both of those reasons?
If I heard somebody tell someone to hurry up because they have a disability I would literally tell them to leave. They don't get service if they are disablist.
@@user2j3ycg4df Sadly most people have an extreme inability to deal with being wrong. If a person would have known that the customer was deaf beforehand, they might not have said anything, but since they complained not knowing that the customer was deaf, and therefore embarrassed themselves, most people will double down and make a scene because they don't know how to fail gracefully. It's a lost art.
yeah but cosidering the mental process in signing is greater than with spoken language, it does become a little more than someone having a conversation, and besides, isnt it nice to occasionjhally see what somebody did to help out another human being, or are you of the opinion that only videos that show people being rude nasty and aggressive to others is what we should all be watching, arent you tired of that crap yet?
Good story. Makes us all feel good. Caleb gives me hope for the future of our young people. And the reporter signing at the end of her story was everything. She's a such a cutie!
oh wow, you're the same guy from that shark tank video who said something along the lines of "the last time I was this early I got crushed like the cockroach I am" lol.
Throughout my teen and young adult life I worked in fast food, I always signed to the deaf customers and it made them so happy. It should be taught in schools.
AmericaTheEngravy sauce no hell... it's not funny... it's discrimination... I cannot believe why people are discriminating disabled people... they do not anything nothing to them... I hate it...
Everything from this video was wholesome. The employee, the customer, the manager, even the reporter was at the end. Is there still hope for humanity as a whole?
I had a deaf customer come in when I was younger and doing fast food cashier work and sadly I had to get them to write down what they wanted. I don't know sign language, but I would eventually like to. It has to be frustrating learning sign language to communicate and then realize that most people do not know it.
That's true. I think it's one reason there are deaf "communities," like at CSU Northridge and of course Gallaudet College, but in many other places too. Also most deaf people are incredibly good at reading lips, but it's not nearly as good a way to understand as is sign.
deenibeeniable True. I work with a few deaf people and none of them can sign, but they read lips so well that I often forget they're hearing impaired. And they speak quite well too.
Khaltazar yea, I put a new note beside me every time I'm at work that I can give 2someone if they need it 2order that says:Dine in or 2go- Just in case 😍
Awwee! I love this. As a deaf person, people should educate themselves and learn how to sign. I experience with negativity people all the time when I am trying to speak they don't know what I am saying nor in sign either. I know there are very amazing people with hearts out there who help that person in need .

I was a bartender and a Train Conductor and I was able to sign to my deaf customers because my aunt is deaf and she taught me as a kid how to communicate with her.
It's pretty cool when a hearing impaired customer discovers that you can communicate with them. The sense of relief (especially the traveling public) because they're trying to get somewhere and the fear of ending up in the wrong place must be frightening. It also helps me help them. I recommend everyone especially POLICE take sign courses.
Did you know that the deaf are terrified of police? Because they cannot hear an officers commands they are at higher risk of being shot or arrested. So, to be a police officer, I feel that being able to communicate with the deaf is important and one class could make all the difference.
Agreed
There was a guy who got tased ,it was because the police thought he was resisting when he was just asking for pen and paper.
I never would have thought of that. Thank you for bringing up that point. I think we all need to learn to be more tolerant and understanding. More education is necessary to understand all aspects of life.
@kim cho exactly my point. Imagine being in a country where you cannot understand a word of their language, Now, further complicate the inability to understand. Not only can you not understand their words, but you can't understand the tone of their voices. You can't decipher the urgency in their command, the panic in their tone of voice, warning you that you're making them nervous because you're not complying. (Because you can't- you don't know what they want). You can't communicate. And you reach into your pocket for your phone to translate for you... the officer misunderstandings your movements because his experience with you is that you're non-compliant. What happens next? More often than not, in a panic, you're shot. One college class American Sign Language (ASL) could save lives, help officers communicate with the deaf and helping the officer by him or her not having to live with killing an innocent person just because they couldn't hear you.
This goes for medical professionals as well, I can fingerspell (which is the most basic sign language skill that honestly everyone should know) and when i had surgery and couldn't speak afterwards, I tried communicating with the nurses that way as I was waking up from anesthesia, and no one could really understand me. It was very scary and I can't imagine how much scarier it'd be if I couldn't even hear what the nurses were saying.

My youngest daughter had a deaf girl in her grade 4 class, the entire class was taught basic sign language. The kids were keen to learn so they could chat silently in class. One of her friends has gone on to be a speech therapist for the deaf community and married a deaf guy, her matron of honour was the deaf girl from primary school.
Not trying to be a dick or anything, but can't deaf people just write down what they want, and show the message to the other person? Or type it on their phone, then show the phone to the other person?
@@Vagabond_Etrangerwhy learn any language at all then if we can all just google translate on our phones
@@Vagabond_EtrangerI’m not in the deaf community but I imagine that writing things on a phone/tablet is cumbersome and signing is much easier if you’ve learned.
@@Vagabond_Etranger you're not a dick! but you should google it or youtube it! there's ton of simple and interesting videos online about the deaf community and why sign language has been such a vital part of deaf culture and communications!
this is a really beautiful story. i wish our class had been taught sign language, unfortunately the deaf/blind kids in school were very socially isolated from others in my school :( i think back on how horrible our special needs programs were, i was part of the reading program in elementary and i saw some awful things! I'm so happy to hear how positive the community your daughter had.
I already applaud him for having that huge interest with sign language, you basically take that course not for yourself but to help others communicate like he did here.
How’s Wano going tho?

It must be super easy if he became "fluent" in sign language with just two high-school courses.
The parents of that young man should be very proud. He personifies humanity at it’s best.
I agree with your comment but you can’t personify something if you’re already a human 🤣 just letting you know m8
@@all-caps3927 you do realize as a human you can still personify something like trust, humanity, nobility etc? Just letting you know m8 it’s simple grammar
@@yjpaperboy173 no you wouldn’t say personify, you would say demonstrates or represents, personifies literally means making something (which isn’t a human) human, so in that context it doesn’t work for a human. It’s simple grammar m8

Everyone’s talking about how this seems like a simple act and stuff but y’all don’t understand how hard it can be for deaf ppl these days, I’ve never met a person that can sign and imagine the ppl who are deaf you know, it is an awesome thing that he took it upon himself to learn sign just because, more people should do that
They are saying that this should be normal but they are complaining here instead of learning sign language to make this normal.
Kaylen. I took ASL in college for a year but I forgot a lot since I stopped using it unfortunately. I still know all the letters / numbers etc, but I’d be scared to sign with a deaf person. I really enjoyed it though after learning for a year :)
Ethan Naka I think learning it even once is awesome and creates a basis of communication but don’t be scared to sign anything you know bc i know they’ll see the effort and it would be greatly appreciated
I've never met anyone who can sign but i've also never met a deaf person. They could always resort to a dry erase board or a notebook for short interactions. Full on conversations would be a bit more inconvenient, but it's still an option.
i bet the bosses would be making way more money if they paid for the employees to learn basic sign language, so why not? they are dealing with general public after all, at least they could be taught hiw to do the most basic and needed signs
During Covid, I had my kids learn ASL just for the heck of it and something to learn. We only know one deaf person in our church; her mother signs the whole Mass for her. It's been inspiring to watch. I feel like ASL is something that should be pushed more to learn, for the deaf community.
Found this story to be very touching , great young man , the best.
I served a deaf customer at work. Well her daughter was deaf.
I saw her signing to her mom while in line so I told my crew I’d take care of it. I said “welcome, my name is Scott. I’m learning ASL, so please sign slowly, and I’m sorry if I get a few words wrong”
Well the daughter just lit up with delight, and the mom appreciated me making an effort for trying to communicate.
I got by thankfully, i won’t deny that I struggled but the mother helped me with some words I wasn’t too sure with
You rock! Keep up the good work!
Wow Scott, thanks for sharing this just made my day and I realized I can do more for people who are deaf! I recently started learning ASL myself so I can communicate with people who are deaf as well.
I know I'm advertising my channel now but I would love have you around so may I suggest it to you? It is all about Kindness and spreading joy because Kindness is for everyone!
I hope to see you around- have a nice day! 😊

@@sgtjohnson The fact that you decided to even try, showed you cared! 😊
Thanks a lot! I hope you like the stay!
Aw..how thoughtful you were! I was teary while reading your comment. Thank you for helping that girl! 🙏🏼😊
Listen up kids this is how you make your life worth while. Being a human being that actually cares for their fellow human.
Says another kid. Inspiring.
Then lose your trust in humans and despise them when you truly learn how ugly mankind can be. when I was a child I was scared of ghost but as I grew older I've realized humans are scarier.
Grammar Police. That is SERIOUSLY true..Humans are MUCH worst than ghosts.. ghosts can be visually scary but humans.. oh God don't even get me started.
I'm not a millennial.. I was born in '88. But honestly I think this whole thing is being blown out of proportion. I don't think this kid should be commemorated for doing exactly what he's supposed to do with a tool that he was fortunate enough to pick up. I mean to me that's sort of like a parent being rewarded for taking care of their kid. But people are acting like this dude ran inside a burning building with no regard for his own life, to save a baby. I mean.. If he didn't use his skills to help that guy, then he would be an asshole right? So why is everyone making a big deal about a guy doing what he very well should be expected to do
RetroGuy76 understood
Nice they gave subtitles.

Peter Butler more like ironic....
It's great he learned a new skill. To communicate with a relative minority group. Well done, truly. Though the media of course jumps on this as a supreme accomplishment. Keep it up the learning thing people of the US. :)
Given that its a video where the person is helping a deaf person its kind of fitting :)
This is truly a heart warming story. Learning a whole new language just for the small majority that he could help whilst doing so. Every little helps. Well done Caleb!

I worked at a gas station that is still located near a school for the deaf. I wasn't previously aware, but I put 2 and 2 together after a few weeks of starting. I can't sign for the life of me, but I learned how to sign 'thank you' as a way of making sure they knew I appreciated them as customers. The way their faces lit up each time still pulls at my heart.
God bless you! Pls learn more. That way you help them even more. 🙏🏼
May God bless your kind soul!
You are making the world a happier place. Keep doing it!
👍👍👍 💜
This is not only just humble but simply beautiful. Such a young and thoughtful man. His parents have raised him right. Thankyou Caleb for making others feel integrated x
So the story is “man who studied sign language, uses it”?
I mean ig, but it has a deeper meaning??
Up next, surgeon performs surgery after training for that skill
Yup
That’s not clickbait enough, no hook to get the viewer or readers attention
obviously...
It's sad that kindness makes the news.
leah hogans i understand. but can be refreshing among all the horrendous things. but i get what u saying.
leah hogans So because it was kind is should have not have been on the news?
it's better than Kardashians and other celebs' news
BaN6k2 what he/she is implying is that kidness is pretty rare these days
what I think is sad is how this is considered kindness, it would be the same as if a Spanish person came in and someone who spake Spanish had to communicate with them and take their order, I mean something similar happened to me, I was helping run a booth at a local rodeo and this little girl cam over and I started to tell her the rules for the game but her mom said that she was deaf, so than I told her the rules in sign language, but that wasn't kindness that was cool lol, I love finding people who know sign language, it's more popular than you'd think
Can we see more like this guy instead of the kardashians?
If you want to see more Taco Bell employees, go to a Taco Bell.
As for the act of kindness, it was merely him doing his job. The fact that it is commended so highly as it is is baffling.

It's a shame that such "basic awareness" like this had to went viral when this is what EVERY people should have do daily
Our entire world must be kinder. Otherwise, the human race has poor chance of survival.
Sweet kid
What's so cool about this young man is his modesty. He seems genuinely surprised that this video was even recorded, let alone went viral, and that people were noticing. In his mind, he simply felt privileged to have a chance to use his sign language skills, but he didn't realize that his professionalism, kindness, and patience would not go unnoticed. The world needs more true winners like this guy. I know this video is kinda old now, so I hope that he's found his niche and that he is continually being appreciated.
Beautifully expressed!
Yes like me
If you think about it, yeah, it's surprising that people make a huge deal about this. He works in customer service and a customer spoke a language that he happens to know. So he has 2 choices, either speak in their language, or not speak it and be an asshole even though he knows how. So he pretty much just chose to not be an asshole and did the job he's paid for. I suppose it's a better news story than all the negative stuff, but yeah, what is the big deal lol.
@@mogdor I think you just might have a more negative perspective, it isn't a big deal to be kind, it should just be apart of their job. We all just want to share in something that makes us happy and feel bonded as a humanity, especially in these times where many people havent seen their friends or family for a year or so
@@sapphire3735 Yes it puts positive vibes out there, better than a lot of news these days and that's definitely a good thing. It's just that the logical side of me can't help taking a purely objective look at the situation. The human side of me thinks the reaction is great. The logical part of me thinks it's absurd lol.
It must be so frustrating for deaf people . This was a real treasure to find him . Bless him.
@john wallace oh yeah true.
@john wallace It's a nightmare for those of us who are hard of hearing, that's for sure. Thankfully, my hearing issues are mild enough that with more focus and practice, I've been able to breeze by just getting the gist of what people are saying, but I still have to avoid loud environments. Otherwise, my biggest crutch is gone and all I hear is a blur of indistinguishable noises with nothing to help give some clarity.
😭
@john wallace yeah it’s horrible. As a deaf person myself it’s added an extra level of isolation. But I get by by asking ppl to remove their masks so I can lip read.
@john wallace I didn't even think of that . The Chinese really did their research with this virus
I learned ASL after I had an interaction with a customer who kept writing everything on our sticky notes and so the next time he came in I was able to communicate with him just a little through sign and I could tell he was so much happier and at ease knowing he didn’t need to write everything down that he needed and over time I kept learning more signs and was able to communicate with all of my deaf customers better. Good on that boy for being super polite and diligent with that man.
Thank you too. For the same reasons. Your act of kindness gave your customer so much comfort,
1) to know you care enough to make the effort
2) that he has somewhere to go and feel normal.
He actually was teaching him the multi shadow clone Jutsu.

More schools should offer Sign Language as an elective, my daughter took it for 2 yrs., I wish she would have continued. What most people don't realize is, not only is it helping hearing impaired people, but, it is considered a 2nd language for most jobs and because there is a need your chance of being hired is greater....
Rio DJeNIRO I learnt ASL as a LOTE because I didn't want to do Chinese or Spanish, however I already knew rather complex ASL before that because I was friends with a kid who was *fortunately* (some say it's a misfortune but I disagree) deaf, but I got better at ASL grammar and got faster at fingerspellings plus as extra credit I learnt the BSL/Auslan fingerspellings too idk why but I got a 95 so I guess it was worth it
Rio DJeNIRO yes! im 29 and have wanted to learn so badly!! my 11 yr old and I are going to try and take classes together
CoolAsFreya I learned from a schoolmate who was born deaf, then had surgery that made her hear. Since she had gone most of her life thus far deaf, and had 2 deaf parents, she knew sign language.
Kay J that's great, you will have a bonding experience together. You are probably bonded already....but I think every little bit helps, specially these days
Rio DJeNIRO yeah my school doesn't have it as an elective but they do have interpreters for the deaf
As a tribute to this amazing young man, I’m going to do something I’ve always wanted to do and that is to finish learning to sign. God bless you for inspiring so many people, Caleb!
Wow amazing!!
You got it bro!
Me too!!!!!!
he inspired you, no one else. everyone else are eating food at the resturant.
Shut up and let people fucking help others, you absolute cock.
Helping and understanding people in need are extremely extraordinary things to do. This chap is the epitome of exact this example. Respect!!!
i wish all schools taught sign language and actually counted it as a language credit. its a language, and it helps people.
In England, where I went to primary school, they taught us sign language at a young age. I remember we each had to learn to sign a story every week for the class. Not sure if its a standard across all schools here
My school actually has an ASL class and counts it as a credit I wanted to switch from french to there but mother dearest wouldnt let me :(( But Im learnin it on my own time lmao
@@johnnyjoestar7143 nope it's not standard unfortunately I went to 2 primary schools, 2 high schools and 1 college it wasn't until college that I was able to go to a sign language class and even then it was an enrichment class, luckily I was taught some basic sign language from my mum and nan from an early age but none of my friends who went to the same high school (came from about 5 different primary schools) none of them had sign language even as an option, it's pretty sad really, in my first primary school they had a french teacher come in and teach us some french rather than sign language
@@johnnyjoestar7143 Sadly not, in primary I learned French then in secondary I learned Spanish.

Deaf people aren't the ones lost and confused , it's the ones that can't understand them lost and confused.
Kenneth Ho lol
Jay J i wasnt saying deaf are the confused ones. They know what they wanna say in sign, its the hearing that misunderstands them.
Kenneth Ho ummm no
More then deaf people use signing to communicate. MY son can't talk so he signs.
Kenneth Ho Came in the comments section to say exactly what you did. I've taken a few years of ASL myself and studied Deaf culture. There is a SERIOUS misconception as to how Deaf people interact in this world. Hearing people can make every effort to communicate with them but most choose not to. Deaf people can't do the same in return which leaves the hearing more lost than anyone because most people don't realize the importance of learning the language.
What a great young man. We need more like him in this world.

I love how Caleb finds it fun to just speak with others. I also find it fun when I can do that with Japanese but imagine just the thrill you get when you find someone who speaks sign language out of nowhere. It’s not a common language to find
It’s also respectful if you’re in another country or even an establishment run by someone who doesn’t speak English natively. My husband and I go to Asian restaurants ALOT and my husband will ask what language they speak if it’s our first time. Each time after that he greets, thanks and says good bye in their native language. We’ve never had an occurrence of any employee at these places being upset. They always seem very happy to hear him speak their language (even if it’s a little bit) and they’re always very kind to us
Weeb.

My friends Grandpa was deaf and she lived with him.
I wanted to come over but I was kinda nervous because I couldn’t communicate with him
So I learned sign language in 6months
I never told her I was learning
Then I asked to go over and when I went over her grandpa introduced himself in sign language and I did sign language my friend was in shock
And then I started talking about myself in sign language and she started tearing up I told her this whole six months I was learning sign language.
She started crying because she said I’ve never had a friend who has done that ♥️

I love how she did asl at the end! I wish we had it on all the shows and everything we see! It would help a lot of people!
I also went to a signlanguage course when I was younger. I can imagine how much it means to someone TO BE missunderstood all the time and then this young boy starts signing to him. Awesome!❤
I began to learn Spanish back in the 1980s. My friends all made fun of me. Now, I speak it at a very near native level. I cannot tell you how many times that I've suddenly found myself in a position needing to use my Spanish to help someone communicate. It is so emotionally rewarding that it defies description. I have never regretted learning that second language. It is the same when anyone wants to learn ANY language and this includes ASL. So, when I watched Caleb here in this video, I could completely identify with him and admire/respect him too.
Your 'friends' aren't real ones, willing to tear you down. They're probably jealous and they should be, you were willing to expand your mind and they weren't. Bilingualism or being a polyglot is amazing! Everyone in the world can be your friend
I'm jealous, I choose French in college and speak it well enough to get by. But in southern California, I should have chosen Spanish.
I'm so PROUD of you!! I tried Spanish, but had a block,; learned to speak French but let it slip away due to lack of practice! DON'T LET YOUR GIFT SLIP AWAY!!
That’s a sign of true compassion and it shows that everyone counts in our society.

My mom is deaf and i started to pick up things from her and her friends when i was 4 and i am now 11 so im not the best at it cause most if my life is around speaking and humans talk alot in just a day but im still learning just for my mom. 💞
This should have more likes tbh
Lilly Bear hey I'm also 11 and I'm trying to learn it my grandma is also deaf but she passed away when I was younger so I don't know her that much and learning it is interesting good luck
Nightcore Soundfreak your grandma is death?
SxF Gaming yeah
Nightcore Soundfreak Pretty sure you mean deaf.
You are a good young man. Thanks for service to people.
People are missing the point lol if it had been myself in his shoes I would have been clueless and this man would not have received fair treatment. The simple things.
You can ask him to write down his questions and what he wants. It's that simple, if you don't know ASL.
@@oahuhawaii2141 people don't want to do that. Because it's out of the way and "disruptive" or "takes too long". Do you know how many times I've been kicked out for both of those reasons?
Because you dont know what a pen and paper is? He is deaf. Not blind. He can write and read. Dur....
@@unknownperson2422 I was talking about the employees not the Deaf person
I'm so glad there wasn't someone behind them going "HuRrY tHe F**k Up CoMe On"
I haven't got all day
It wouldn’t matter cuz he’s deaf and wouldn’t hear him
If I heard somebody tell someone to hurry up because they have a disability I would literally tell them to leave. They don't get service if they are disablist.
After we realise the context, most of us will stop being impatient.
@@user2j3ycg4df Sadly most people have an extreme inability to deal with being wrong. If a person would have known that the customer was deaf beforehand, they might not have said anything, but since they complained not knowing that the customer was deaf, and therefore embarrassed themselves, most people will double down and make a scene because they don't know how to fail gracefully. It's a lost art.
Breaking news: 2 people converse in same language. More at 11.
JonO387 breaking news not really. Guy sees something on TH-cam that is good and wants to downplay it. Well done jerk. Well done.
This is a normal thing that happens every day all of the world.I'm not downplaying it. Reality is.
yeah but cosidering the mental process in signing is greater than with spoken language, it does become a little more than someone having a conversation, and besides, isnt it nice to occasionjhally see what somebody did to help out another human being, or are you of the opinion that only videos that show people being rude nasty and aggressive to others is what we should all be watching, arent you tired of that crap yet?
JonO387 FUCK! WE'RE DOING IT RIGHT NOW! CALL CNN!
Martine, I had the same thought. He could work as a court translator for example.
Good story. Makes us all feel good. Caleb gives me hope for the future of our young people. And the reporter signing at the end of her story was everything. She's a such a cutie!
That’s America. If someone treats another person like a human being it is Newsworthy.
lmao almost spat out my drink reading thia
No pal, that's called the news media. Most humans do kind acts daily.
we are all immigrants from korea
@@setward2536 Agreed
in the rest of the world kindness is so common it's not news.
The reporter "signed out". That was beautiful.
Amazing young guy!! Well done. I hope you do so well in life
Hope he has got on in life he deserves to respect from England
And I'm over here failing high school Spanish n shit
Mr. Horrible i guess sign language could come in oretty HANDY now HAHAHAHA
iTransit Growtopia epic joke
I'd probably focus on getting shit right because it's a lot easier to learn Spanish once you're not covered in shit.
Mr. Horrible LOL!!!!!:-)
oh wow, you're the same guy from that shark tank video who said something along the lines of "the last time I was this early I got crushed like the cockroach I am" lol.

Nothing To see here
Throughout my teen and young adult life I worked in fast food, I always signed to the deaf customers and it made them so happy. It should be taught in schools.
That’s really cool. It shows that you really care about people. I feel like that care will get you further in life than anything else will.
Not about you
YOU'RE THE GREATEST! Bet you're Still kind, and Considerate of others!!! UNLIKE the jerks in responces on here!
Well done that lad! May your future shine bright 💜💜💜🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😊
STOP throwing gang signs michael
it's a joke guy. you know one of those things that make you laugh at yourself or others.
AmericaTheEngravy sauce no hell... it's not funny... it's discrimination... I cannot believe why people are discriminating disabled people... they do not anything nothing to them... I hate it...
Burger Kid
how is that discrimination?
AmericaTheEngravy sauce normal or hearing people against disabled or deaf people... you never know...
Burger Kid
maybe you should just learn to take a joke, laugh it off, and be on your merry way. life will be so much easier that way.
Everything from this video was wholesome. The employee, the customer, the manager, even the reporter was at the end.
Is there still hope for humanity as a whole?
I had a deaf customer come in when I was younger and doing fast food cashier work and sadly I had to get them to write down what they wanted. I don't know sign language, but I would eventually like to. It has to be frustrating learning sign language to communicate and then realize that most people do not know it.
That's true. I think it's one reason there are deaf "communities," like at CSU Northridge and of course Gallaudet College, but in many other places too. Also most deaf people are incredibly good at reading lips, but it's not nearly as good a way to understand as is sign.
deenibeeniable True. I work with a few deaf people and none of them can sign, but they read lips so well that I often forget they're hearing impaired. And they speak quite well too.
Khaltazar maybe schools should make sign language the required language instead of Spanish
ItsOrval You should have to learn another language in school , definitely, but more people speak Spanish than sign, so Spanish would be more useful.
Khaltazar yea, I put a new note beside me every time I'm at work that I can give 2someone if they need it 2order that says:Dine in or 2go- Just in case 😍
Awwee! I love this. As a deaf person, people should educate themselves and learn how to sign.
I experience with negativity people all the time when I am trying to speak they don't know what I am saying nor in sign either.
I know there are very amazing people with hearts out there who help that person in need .
