Some Roofers Offered This Homeless Guy A Job, And He Soon Showed Them His True Colors

The music in this video had me waiting for the narrator to announce that John had murdered the roofers and stole their truck.

I was homeless for 3 years when I was 14 years old to 17. The only way I really survived (and took care of my younger sister) was because of people like that offering me similar jobs. I did roofing, flooring, electrical work, and even some car mechanic work! They were pretty shocked at me being a hard worker and being there quite early and ready whenever they wanted me. Being homeless puts you into such a position where you'll do literally anything, having someone else depending on you furthers that making you have to do just that. I worked hard and was always first to arrive last to leave. Eventually, the man who hired me had me help remodel a house he owned. It was old, and pretty beat up. Naturally, I just figured he was gonna resell it since it was in a great spot with a pond and all. After we finished the remodel, he gave me the house, and a permanent job working for him as long as I wanted to. From there, I worked for the man until he passed away a couple years later. To think that someone with such a heart exists in the world is truly stunning. There are great people out there, they are just far too few to be recognized without stories like this one and mine. Today, the both of us are far better off than we ever would have been were it not for the men who hired me knowing nothing about me during that awful time in our lives.

am i the only one who thought he was going to be an ex roofer?

This is amazing. Well done to those very kind and thoughtful fellas who offered John work. I hope John is in a better place now after been given that first helping hand many people need. This story warms my heart. There are lots of kind people out there in the world even though sometimes it’s hard to believe. I hope their wife’s/girlfriends/families are very proud of them for holding out a hand to another human in need of help. ❤️

The music was a bad choice..........I kept thinking somebody was about to die.

With that eerie music and the "Showed Them His True Colors" bit in the title, I really thought this was going to take a more sinister turn...

God bless all homeless !!! This is a sign that there is still hope for humanity !!

I've been a roofer for 30 years . Its back breaking labour , scorching hot in the summer , freezing cold in the winter . If it wasn't for the great group of guys I worked with over the years it would have been unbearable !! We drink to much , smoke to much , but its all par for the course !! Roofer are a breed of their own !! Canadian Roofer : )

jesus christ with that music i thought he was gonna turn out a serial killer

He worked hard, was humble, and got paid well. THE END

California here, this a really good story, everyone should pay it forward. Thank God for people like this,it restores my faith in humanity.

"It's the most love I've ever had" :((

That's a really great story to be honest. Such an awesome gesture that very likely changed his life forever. Good people still do exist...amazing.

would have been a better story if that company gave him a steady job , and offered him the help he needed to get of the Streets , instead of just 2 days work and 90bucks .

Thank you Empire Team. Your kindness will spread throughout the homelessness issues. 😢

Nice to see in this day and age their are still some good hearted people out their willing to help people when they are down and out.Great job you guys.

This is some solid marketing

Thank you roof worker people for helping someone in need, you all are a credit to the human race. And thank you John, for showing others that not all homeless people are lazy bums and some are just down on their luck. I wish all others were giving and receptive, the world would be a better place. Good luck to you John!😀

This is why most of us love the Brits. Well done! I'm proud of you lads. Michael from Texas.
