He’s pulling down manager money, presumably full time, and he can’t afford a car or at least a bus pass? And no one working at that location will give him a ride? Sounds like either a personal PR stunt or he really, really likes to walk.

Yeah cause that place looks like it pays a lot.

How out of touch some of us are.

And a 12 minute mile is nothing if you’re in good shape.

I used to walk and hour and a half from rock plaza to the ferry at night sometimes. And I was 5 11, 250 and it was a breeze.

This guy’s in good shape. If he like the walk maybe, good for him.

VERY easy to believe he can’t afford a car and insurance and maybe he doesn’t want a bike.

Leave it to some people here to find fault with the story.

Geez.

Keep an eye on his GoFundMe account (currently at $3760).

A similar stunt pulled by some poor guy in Detroit who walked to work netted nearly $200,000 after the news media picked it up.

If hew can walk at 5 mph, he could certainly ride a bicycle at about 20, cutting his commute time to under an hour each way.. Must really love to walk.

There are no buses that carry passengers from Plano to McKinney.

And no one working at that location will give him a ride?

He was working at the Plano location ... easy walking distance from his home. But he was recently transferred to the McKinney location and just decided to keep walking. Not sure about his financial situation.

Sounds like either a personal PR stunt or he really, really likes to walk.

From what I've heard/read about it ... he just likes walking.

Braums is just a small fast food ice cream and burger joint..........What do you presume his asst. manager's salary is, $200K? Try a buck or two over the minimum wage of the kids that work there........

*****

i thought the same thing. Ever hear of Uber? hck, I;ve seen weird share-rides on Craigslist. Either he cant get a license or he likes to walk. REALLY likes to walk. The dude must be in great shape due to the calories lost.
