He will be a great dad and wish have a wonderful time of season ! Live honest and sincerely
He definitely made us Long Islanders proud!
Merry Christmas to this guy!
@Mary kai How is he trying to kill old people? I agree that grandma should have worn a mask but they were all distanced from others during the interview. I support wearing masks but it's not mandated or even recommended while doing physical activity like shoveling snow.
Mary kai you are a psychopath
Mans not afraid of some hard work. Gotta respect that.
merry christmas to everyone that read this. may we all have a much better 2021 and beyond. filled with health and wealth for our loved ones
@Biological Warfare =useless grinch
please dont spread your cancer to the rest of us and try to find some joy in your personal life.
Awesome story.
What's special about this story is that he called 2 of his layoff coworkers so that they can make some money..😍😍😍
Shut up. You’re special
Boys wallow when times are tough. Men stand up and survive. Blessing my brother. #GodProvidesAlways.
Wow. I was doing this for free Thursday.
No videos for Me..
Everyone who offered me pay I denied..
God. Bless him
He didn’t turn to stealing but find work wherever to support a family. All my pray to your family well being.
How do you know he wasn't stealing or shoplifting?
I’m just glad he and his fellow co workers are able to make some much needed money during this pandemic 🙏🏽
Good man , I’ve shoveled snow when the bay was frozen and couldn’t dig shellfish 🦪. Nothing to be a shamed of . Still a hard days work .
Swallowed his pride? Wtf work is work
Right, my sister works at a dollar tree she was telling me some lady in her line was talking to another lady saying she was looking for work and my sister told her they're hiring the lady said no she wants a real job. As long As it's honest money a job is a job
God bless his ❤..There's nothing to be ashamed of doing an honest living plus at the same time helping people out especially the Seniors. TY Sir 🙏😷🥰
I live in Philly and teenagers do this all the time.
But congrats to him and his family.
good 4 them. i haven't seen one in years.
i wished he was here. the kids r too good to do it now. bad back and hope he gets away from the stealing theives. that's all govment do.
He should consider a handyman business. He's obviously not afraid of hard work and there's a shortage of folks in the business, and it's essential work. His experience as a stage hand should serve him well. Good luck!
God bless this man and his family. I remember when I was a kid snow days were a day off school and a chance to make money shoveling snow. It was that and my newspaper route that gave me some spending money. As I grew into an adult I noticed that those jobs were taken over by adult immigrant workers. Those first gigs for kids are all but a thing of the past.
Um...you don't have to put down immigrants though. There are still companies and programs all over the state that look to hire young people and if not for 18-24 year olds there is Year Up, Grace Institute, NEW and other programs that help teens and young adults find a career.
@@ED-ie3et yes, I had to say adult immigrants because that is the demographic that usurped those jobs from kids (preteens) that are not allow to work in jobs due to labor laws. These paid chores (snow shoveling, mowing the lawn, gardening, delivering newspapers) were traditionally reserved for kids to serve as a building block in a child’s development. It taught them the value of an honest day’s work. That learning experience has been taken away from them.
COMPASSION IS GREATER THAN ANY TRADITION.
That’s so cool. He shared the jobs with two more stagehands. Can they stage holiday decorations after they clear the snow?
Very proud of him!!
This is news?
These are the stories that keep me going through the pandemic because I worry about other people. I know not everybody is lucky enough to find a way but I'm glad to hear he is
Yes read the channels name
Or is that too hard
Hey, you deserve it!!! Happy holidays to you, your wife and the new one on the way 😉!
Cheers buddy. Congrats!!!!! Here here!
Shoveling is good exercise and it brings tranquility.
Man shouldn't have to swallow his pride just open up an allow people to work. Shut downs isn't going to help. Just sad he has to do that an nobody see the underlying problem.
No such thing as NO WORK .... blessings to him an his family
I have storm videos. Petefishes
Poor dudes back is crying
That’s a good Daddy right there. ❤️🌈
He is in a union and he don't have an income 🤔 so much for job security
Merry Christmas Brian!!!
Swej will tax him Heavy!
Feel good story. Needed it.
Keep NYC UNION!!!!!
I love a man that will work.
Swallowing his pride ??? To do an honest job ?? What a snob !!!
That's what I say - I used to pick strawberries.
Judy, you must be miserable.
My kind of story♥️
I’m available for yard work, elder care, dog walking, child care, house cleaning, south of Seattle.
🌞
Merry Christmas, everyone.
Honest hard working guy. That a "Real man" right there. I wish him all the best. Nice to see intelligence & non-violence . . . ( for a change ).
God Bless this guy!!! Its,nice to see something like this instead of all the other crap u see on here Merry Xmas to him,family!!Hope they have a nice healthy baby😍😍
Wow!Awesome
I honestly don’t see why this made it on the news, he charged people for the service, it’s not like it was free. Is an honest days work really this rare these days?
Exactly. He ain't doing it for free
Many kids in NY LIKE MYSELF, did this too! (in the 60's and early 70's) SO congrats to this guy! Just Shows if you hustle and want to earn an honest days pay anyone can do it!
ONLY difference was, we as kids used shovels and all manual labor! but good for this guy!
Today, KIDS are too fukin lazy and play games, videos, etc expecting everything handed to them, LMFAO.
You can make a good buck if you put your mind to it.
I averaged about $60 (Around 1969, 9 years old) per week AND working only about 5 hours per week, more if it especially snowed a lot continuously! AND it did in Upstate NY!
And this is when I was 9-10 years old! Great times! I loved Blizzards and heavy snow back then. (no school but worked!)
Plenty of jobs on Long Island but cool
What do you get out of down playing this man 😂
@@Leo-nl4yr I was laid off too. I didn’t go to unemployment. I always had work this year. Just saying. I’m not downplaying him. I know you guys just want a cute warning story for the holidays so I’ll let it be.
@@MikeADHD well you do know you’re not the only person on this planet right?😂not everyone is as lucky as you. You’re too caught up in your own head man you think everyone else does things the way you do “I’ll let it be” 😂what could you possibly do to not let it be man? Just keep quiet your comment doesn’t help anyone and sounds like your trying to down play this man who’s struggling more than you are
@@MikeADHD warm*
Malverne is a wonderful place.
Merry Xmas to all the good people out there with hearts! God bless you all.. true New Yorkers always look out for one another..
I left Long Island after my family had been there since 1898. I do not miss the snow nor the political atmosphere. However, for those who have an opinion about New Yorkers ... guy's like this isn't the exception. New Yorkers always seem to pull together. And as the father of two daughters! This guy is going to be so blessed. Just never think you'll ever win another argument. Women stick together 😉
Honestly, I know people doing doordash & uber eats after their other part time jobs.
Why did he need to swallow his pride to make easy money?
Oh wait, he's probably on unemployment so he cant collect through w2/w9... cash option.
There's no way his union job did not have unemployment insurance.
Bless his heart ♥️ too many “men” these days feel they’re “too good” for this kind of work. So seeing him & his friends do this to survive in today’s world makes my heart happy.
For those making smart ass comments saying “you did the same thing but didn’t get a reward” or “people have done it for years blah blah” yeah that might be the case but this husband & father to be lost his job due to a virus that none of us have experienced before & instead of going on unemployment, turning to crime, or just laying around expecting other ppl to support him he got up & did something. He works everyday for money to support his wife & to prepare for the arrival of his daughter. Shame on y’all for putting him down/making snide comments bc he is trying to make an honest living to support his family.
Kudos to you & your friends who have been helping with it. Also, a huge congratulations to you & your beautiful wife on the baby girl! She is going to be so proud of her daddy ♥️
That GOOD for him & his FAMILY. X LANDSCAPER/ homekeep R.T. THIS YEAR 2020. (GOOD LUCK AT THAT) TONY
Lol I just watched the movie Nightcrawler and now every news story feels suspicious, like my feelings are being directed.
Good guy, though. Wish him the best.
He should've kept it off the news and wore a mask like his buddies. The IRS now has his name and confirmed identity by being on TV. He'll find out soon enough, the tax man cometh. Or he'll be mugged now that non working types know where to find him.
Could have used him in my neck of the woods. Bet he could put many of his stage hand friends to work all over the tri state next snow ❄️ Many blessing to him and his family for a happy holiday and new year ✨🙏✨🎄✨♥️
Good the see him being blessed. Hopefully Uncle Sam doesn’t try to jump in his pocket by watching this video and saying where my cut?
All I got to say is you don’t see him doing illegal activity for money and going to jail. It’s all about the choices YOU decide to make not about where you live or how much education you have. It’s about the mentality and drive.
a nice news is through of Jesuchrist you are saved believe in he for faith in your heart in the place where you are
he is the way to heaven read in the holy bible st john 14 : 6 , romans 10 : 13 , acts 4 : 12 🍁🍂🌷🙏
Good luck to this man and his future family. I use to charge 5 bucks and sometimes after job was completed they wouldn't answer the door. Made me a stronger man.
Whoever said there are more Heroes in this World..WELL .. They just don't know where to look...
Good for Brian where there’s a will there is a way! He is my person of the year! He will be a Super Dad! Congrats to this couple on the coming birth of their daughter!
Good for him! But I’m surprised no one is complaining he’s taking illegal immigrants jobs
God bless!!👍👏💜
Make sure you invest in some good boots ,so you have less chances of falling. Take care. God bless!!👍👏💜
🎶 He's Mr. Plow, that's his name.
That name again, is Mr. Plow 🎶
Everyone in the comments aren’t from Long Island NY
Congratulations on your first child. Continued blessings. Truly a angel
Some say he swallowed his pride. What's not to be proud of instead of pissing moaning and crying he did what he had to do. That to me is admirable
Great story but he kinda screwed himself with uncle Sam for letting this go to the media. Now he has to watch out for getting slammed with taxes
Work is work be it a union guy to your local fast food employee there is never anything to be ashamed of when you’re doing the right thing and working
Do door dash, ubereat, and postmates food delivery instead. Could easily make $100 or more in a day.
Blessings to you and your family and the baby on the way 🙏🙏🙏
There are lots of people who need a paycheck and many others who offered shoveling services all over New York.
See, I knew Long Island wasn't all bad. 🙏🏻
That's nice but it will be better if you took a better shovel, not a 99 cent store shovel, better yet take a snowblower with you that would be the smart thing to do
How about we get a woman to do the same in the name of equality, especially being that anything a man can do a woman can do better!
This problem not solution open economy
God bless you man! Keep your head up :)
Glad I was born in Florida now ppl in NY are moving here and leaving that snow behind
The guy is doing good but that lady a real OG 61 years on the Block!
God Bless you all! One door closes and many open🙏♥️God is Great!
Good guy love stories like this!
God bless you and your family 🙏
While politicians r making billions ...
Flash Back // I REMEMBER THESE DAYS 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Americans, doing American things...
Why why is it always a Brian? let me know if you still need help.
So he’s laid off and has no money but decides to have a kid?
Tf everyone does this 😂
Way to go! Best of luck in the future :)
Everyone does this lol but ok
Damn this economy sucks ass
You can tell he has a heart of gold .
Props to this guy all around. I cannot tell you how many able bodied out of work people who probably needed to make $$ sat on thier but keester during the snow storm and never even considered using it to thier advantage.
In my neck of the woods, many are still digging just to get out of their driveway.
May God bless the man!
making america great again.
Great father...salute...
IRS is going to tax his hard earned money. Thank you to the homeowners for providing work for this guy.
🤫 don't tell.
Terrible job
He is a hero, no question
I love Long Island
Is that a pajama dress?
#local4 #stagehand
Right on!!!
Good for him.
