Man’s First Day Of Work Ruined When Squad Car Follows Him

Although Walter never intended to become so emotional, it became too much to bear. He only attempted to arrive at work in time for his day. He couldn’t help but feel unworthy of this.

His feelings were raging right now. The tears started to come before he could control them. All the emotion from everything that had happened finally overcame him as they spilled like a river

He Was Only A Child

Walter Carr lived in Five Points West, one of the most desolate neighborhoods of Birmingham, Alabama. His high school career had just ended. Life had never been simple for him. To top it all off, he had an old soul despite his young age.

He had seen a lot of things as a child that no child should ever witness, and those experiences had permanently changed the course of his life.

Giving Their Best

As far as Walter could remember, his parents had always gone above and beyond to provide him and his three brothers with a good life. However, sometimes even their best wasn’t enough.

Even though Walter’s parents worked hard, the family still didn’t have much. The family could not afford to pay for hot water, so no one was permitted to take a hot shower for the last ten days of the month.

Providing Advice and Support

Walter’s parents had always tried to be there for their kids and offer them advice and support, despite always being occupied with second and third jobs to pay the bills.

They were well aware that poverty was both a material state as well as a mental one. They didn’t want their kids to make the wrong decisions or go down the wrong path.

Making His Parents Proud

Walter acted accordingly, knowing all of this. He worked hard in high school and earned the top spot in his graduating class.

His biggest motivation was making his parents proud, easing them of the strain of being the only breadwinners, and getting a proper job to contribute to the house’s finances. He would soon, however, find a hindrance in this path.
