What we're watching today: CEO gives car to employee who was walking 20 miles to work

If you haven't seen it by now, check out this video and have your faith in humanity rewarded. A young man set out at midnight in Alabama to walk 20 miles to his first day of work at a new job after his car broke down. He was picked up more than halfway in to his walk by a pair of policemen, who took him to breakfast, bought him a to-go lunch for later, and drove him the rest of the way. There's more ... after hearing about his dedication to a job he hadn't even officially started yet, the moving company CEO for whom he worked came out to meet him and gave him his personal car as a gift. So many levels of great here.
