LOS ANGELES - Kevin Ford, 54, of Las Vegas, Nevada is a man of grace and humility. He’s been working as a cook and a cashier at the Burger King in the city’s McCarran International Airport for the past 27 years.
Ford said he’s never missed a day of work in that time.When he showed up to work earlier last week on the 27th anniversary of his employment, he didn’t make a big deal about it and not even his bosses were aware of the commemoration.
But when he made a joke about the time he’s spent employed, management scrambled to get him a thank-you gift which consisted of a movie ticket, a Starbucks cup, some candy, chocolate and a backpack for it all to fit in.
Ford posted a video of him thanking his team and showing off his items, but he never imagined it would go viral. The video has attracted tens of thousands of views and likes.
