The internet can be an overwhelmingly negative place sometimes... But then, stories like these happen, and it restores your faith in the human race. On December 2, TikTok user Samuel Weidenhofer AKA @itssozer introduced his 7.7 million followers to Ed Bambas, a retired veteran working in retail to be able to afford to survive. The 88-year-old explained in the video that he was working in a Detroit Meijer store after his wife passed away 7 years ago. He revealed he'd worked for General Motors and retired in 1999, but since they went bankrupt in 2012, he lost his pension.
