Homeless Guy Gets Job, Becomes Promotions Manager after Animal-Lover Viral Video

A homeless guy gets a job and quickly becomes a promotions manager after his animal-lover video went viral.

It was his biggest break after losing his job and becoming homeless for 3 years…

Luck of Homeless Guy Changes after Going Viral

There are countless people living in the streets, yet most of them are not lazy people who don’t want to work. Many are just those who are down on their luck and unable to get out of their situation for different reasons.

One of them is a guy named Jeff who went viral after he was caught on video lovingly kissing a stray kitten he had adopted while he’s living in the streets. He found a job and quickly got promoted to promotions manager after the video went viral!

The video was uploaded by Tiktoker Claudia (@MissClaudia14) who spotted him under the flyover while she was stuck in traffic.

Netizens love the happy smile on this homeless guy’s face as he waved to Claudia. Although he lives in the streets, he appears to be content with his life, truly happy with his fur baby, and smiling as if he has no worries in the world.

The TikTok video quickly went viral and has been viewed over 5.3 million times since Claudia posted it in November 2022.

Here’s the first video:

Many netizens were quick to offer help for the homeless guy, with many assuming that he’s a kind person by the way he kisses the kitten and happily smiles at a stranger.

They learned that his name is Jeff.

Many people also commented that he really is a nice guy and that they’ve met him in the streets sometimes. Apparently, he sells some stuff to support himself (but he’s certainly not earning enough to get off the streets).

Some netizens also hoped that someone will give him a job, knowing that his viral fame won’t last long – a job will certainly be a long-term help.

Claudia and her friends happily obliged. They took Jeff to a barbershop (thanks to a sponsor), found a place for him to freshen up, and took him shopping for clothes and food.

Then, Claudia brought him to the office where her partner works, at Your Future Insurance Company, so that he can possibly get a job. At first, Jeff found a job as janitor but the company quickly realized his potential – and got him a new job as promotions manager.

What a way to turn his life around.

But if you want to give them something, here are some of the best items to give homeless people:

  • Hygiene products or care kit
  • Clothes
  • Underwear
  • Slippers, socks, or shoes
  • Food they don’t need to cook

SHS Student Brings Photos of Late Parents on Graduation Day

A senior high school (SHS) student brought framed photos of her late parents on her graduation day, touching many hearts and making netizens cry.

Her story has gone viral, with many netizens cheering her on and praying for her success in life…

SHS Student Brings Photos of Late Parents on Graduation Day

Graduation day is one of the best days in a student’s life, but it’s not always the happiest for all.

Some also experience a bittersweet moment because their loved ones aren’t with them. While many are due to having OFW parents who can’t be home for the special, others are because the parents have already passed on.

SHS student Juvelyn Dela Torre Eugenio, 18, of North Cotabato made netizens cry after she carried her parents’ framed photos as she marched and posed on stage to receive her diploma.

She explained that during recognition days and other special events when she was younger, it was always her mother who would accompany her on stage.

She wants to share her success and milestones with her parents, but they’re no longer around.

They lost their father to heart failure in July 2020.

In 2022, the siblings decided to let their mother enjoy a vacation with her older children in Manila, only to discover that she was sick and already in the terminal stages of a stage 4 battle with the Big C. They lost her shortly thereafter.

Juvelyn shared that losing their parents took a toll on her mental health, especially because she had to stand as a parent to her younger brother.

On graduation day, she vowed that she wouldn’t cry despite seeing all the other students with their parents.

But she broke down on stage when a concerned teacher asked her about her parents and offered words of consolation after she showed her their photos.

Despite the challenges, Juvelyn plans on continuing her journey as she dreams of becoming a lawyer someday.

Elementary Students Praised for Playing “One Day” Using Ukuleles

Elementary students at a school in Mindanao earned praise online after playing “One Day” using their ukuleles for a presentation.

Many netizens were impressed about their skills, with some commenting that it’s a difficult piece to play on a ukulele, yet most of them nailed it! Wow.

Elementary Students Play “One Day” Using Their Ukuleles

A lot of people these days have this mistaken notion that kids are only fond of using cellphones and no longer enjoy playing with traditional toys or learning how to use a traditional musical instrument – because you can find lots of options for those online or with their phones.

But a group of students from Dipolog Pilot Demonstration School impressed netizens with their skills in playing the ukulele as they presented “One Day” for the school’s 100-year celebration.

Seated on the steps of their school, the kids played the musical instruments seamlessly, except for a few issues.

And while some netizens pointed out that one of the kids appear to be struggling with the proper chords and kept shifting around during the entire performance, the overall presentation is still quite impressive!

Many netizens even commented on the post of the Facebook page “Kung Taga-Oroquieta City Ka” that they were deeply touched by the kids’ presentation and were crying while watching. Awww.

A lot also praised the coaches who made this possible – and others felt proud of the children even if they had no idea who these little ones are.

It’s also quite impressive to see that the class had so many ukuleles. It is unknown whether the kids own the musical instruments or if the school provided them, but what’s clear is that their presentation is truly admirable.

What’s a Ukulele?

A ukulele is a type of string musical instrument that’s smaller than a guitar. It usually has nylon strings as opposed to the metal used in standard guitars.

The instrument also has four strings but isn’t considered a “kid’s instrument” only. Instead, it can be played by kids and adults alike.

Apparently, based on her mom’s post on Facebook, she had also self-reviewed for the licensure exams – and this made her success even sweeter for the family.

In the post of her mom, Rose, it showed that the family’s main source of income is from selling taho. It was through this that the parents were able to send their kids to school.

Rose lamented that there were times when people looked down on their because they are “just” taho vendors.

Thankfully, the family didn’t mind what these people are saying. Instead, they persevered and put their faith in God.

She thanked all her kids for cooperating and striving hard to succeed in their studies even if their parents are only supporting them by selling taho.
