Company Pay Man With Candy, He Records The Whole Thing
Underwhelming Gift
It was supposed to be a special day, a momentous occasion. But when he received the gift he had been waiting for, his smile faded.
The camera filmed as he went through the items one at a time, pulling them out of the clear plastic bag they were in and holding them up. It must’ve been some kind of sick joke. It just couldn’t be anything else. Soon netizens would see the video, and they would lose it.
Kevin Ford
54-year-old Kevin Ford was born and raised in Sheffield, Alabama. When he moved to Las Vegas to find work at the age of 24, he met the woman of his dreams and settled down to start a family.
While he didn’t earn a lot of money flipping burgers at the Burger King in the Las Vegas McCarran International Airport, his wife didn’t care. All they needed was love. Or so Kevin thought.
Loyal Employee
When Kevin’s marriage started crumbling just a few years later, it was like the wool had suddenly been lifted from his eyes. But now, he had two daughters to look after.
Kevin continued to work at Burger King throughout the years so he could support his two girls. He showed up for work every day – even when he was ill or had been fighting with his wife all night and could barely keep his eyes open. He had no idea how he’d be repaid after 27 years of this.
Trouble At Home
Even throughout years of marriage problems, Kevin remained steadfast. He was a rock. He put food on the table and put his daughters through school while his relationship with his wife deteriorated.
He didn’t know who she was anymore, but she wasn’t the woman he’d married. She had changed. After brewing for a few years, things came to a head.
An Ugly Custody Battle
It became obvious that Kevin’s wife was not fit to raise his children while he worked long hours to provide for them. Things couldn’t go on as they had been. He divorced his wife and entered an ugly custody battle to keep his girls.
Although his personal life was in turmoil and filled with court hearings, Kevin still didn’t miss a day of work. Little did he know, Burger King still expected more.
