Man with Down syndrome honored for working at same McDonald's for 27 years

He loves what he does.

Great Job Chris! Thanks to the Management of that MacDonald's franchise for giving him a chance.

​@@charlespancamo9771 You're a liar. You're talking about another Down syndrome person who got fired, from another location but it wasn't necessarily Chris. Stop trying to make this a not so happy moment.

I remember playing basketball and then the team ended up teaching one summer and a kid coming in at age 5 who listened better than most adults. Changed my life forever

[@passqualecaiazza7728]

Great job Chris. You are special Side note to the able bodied people. If a disability person can work, you have no excuse. I use to do service calls at a pizza parlor, where a whole group with disabilities were working. Then outside and see able bodies begging for money. Hats off to Chris

[@muffs55mercury61]

$52.64 take home in 1992 wasn't bad for a part time job and it bought more than it does now (gasoline was $1.10-1.20 a gallon thru most of the 1990s where I lived) Too bad the Wendy's store initially fired that guy also with Down's earlier this year (he has since been reinstated due to the firestorm that erupted after that) and didn't appreciate the 20 years he put in. Chris you're to be commended for your hard work. It's a lot more than some people are willing to do at the present time. I am deeply saddened that Chris passed away not too long after this as I've learned from another video.

[@hellfire66683]

It was .89 cents at Amaco for the good stuff where I lived in those days, I was a 1st asst. Mgr making 4.75 an hour paying all my bills and still had fun money.

[@buddhazorro5925]

Love that dude…he just made me happy without the meal.

[@todydn]

Yahhh know idk why this is even an issue these days people complain constantly about crappy service from workers w bad attitudes ...... have you ever seen a person with a disability thats workong without a smile or at the very least a cheerfull demeanor good for you chris you can tell he realy has passion for what he does alot of people could learn from chris the most touching part is how ge likes handing out the happy meal boxes and seeing how it makes others happy such a great soul

[@sroevukasroevuka]

Working in foodservice and retail i agree i worked with disabled people. I was the guy at work who stood up for them when people messed with them. They were always working hard kind and happy. They showed up and wete great people in general. I never saw them as different. I see them as human beings who should be treated with the same respect compassion and kindness as everyone else.

Dennis Peek was fired from Wendy's after more than 20 years working for them (“he wasn't able to do his job like a normal person.” according to the manager). They offered to give his job back because of backlash from the community. He declined.

[@MA-pb5bc]

I was thinking about this story when i was watching this video! Wendy's Need to learn from McDonald's..

[@ChrissGriffin2000]

It makes me furious that people aren’t going to eat at Wendy’s over this. It wasn’t the CEO, it was the manager of ONE Wendy’s in the whole country. Talk about mass sensitivity

[@edwinarcilla5888]

@@ChrissGriffin2000 Speak for the other people because I still eat at Wendy's. Their bacon and cheese baked potato happens to be my favorite. Although all companies should have a regular diversity check on their staff.

I was just thinking of him when I first watched this. I'm not a huge fan of fast food places anyway but I'm done with Wendy's for good now!

Another example of why McDonalds is the best fast food restaurant around. Food may not be the best, but corporate policy that promotes the hiring of all people, regardless of skin color or disability, is the biggest reason I will be a customer for life.

[@cassandramnance5777]

His community isn't attacking his household and isn't trying to abuse him badly. He doesn't receive numerous of outrageous large utility bills to his home and he isn't being disrespected by church organizations that suppose to help the disabled society with their needs. And the court system isn't abusing him and constantly harassing and arresting him so yes his mind is clear and not depressed from community abuse. It's easy to do other things when you don't have to be concerned with PTSD caused by so many hostile attacks on your personal life just for being disabled. Ethnic disabled citizens aren't treated with humility. When your corporate society in your community is hostile and hateful to the homeless, sick, and disabled then your community is a breeding ground for reckless misconducts on a monthly year to year bases... And it's interesting how you can be nice to the disabled community when you people want to. Because it means that you don't have to be cruel to people but you people just choose to.

My sister and her peers were the very first mentally handicapped people that worked for a corporation, Marriott’s, in the 1980s in the Entire United States that opened the door for people like Chris Campbell…. Prior to my sister Patricia Linzey and her peers working for Marriott at the Md rest stop on Rt 95 there were No opportunities for people with that type of disabilities. At best maybe they were employed at a small ma and pa situation! They are the True heroes!
