A homeless man in New York City who was given a pair of shoes by a stranger passing by him while jogging earlier this week has now been offered a job and a second chance.

A Twitter account by the name of @NYorNothing posted a video on Sunday showing a man dressed in a red shirt and dark shorts giving his shoes to a homeless man sitting on the sidewalk.

The homeless man, identified as Joe Arroyo, 30, spoke to ABC News station WABC-TV in New York on Wednesday about that random act of kindness in lower Manhattan. Arroyo told WABC-TV that the jogger, whom he did not know, had walked by and noticed that he had holes on the bottom of his sneakers. Arroyo told the news station what the stranger said to him.

During the interview, Arroyo said that although he’d been living on the streets for years, he was looking for a job and open to any opportunity offered to him.

There are still s few good people in the world.

Use this to go viral for other homeless. The world is a cruel insensitive place who walk over poor and homeless too often. They're treated as third class trash.

It's all about the shoes...

Great story and hopefully will end well!

The jogger is a good man and now the homeless man has a job!

Running in New Hampshire, Joe Biden is a familiar face in unfamiliar territoryBiden is reconnecting with familiar faces in Granite Staters’ backyards while embracing the unfamiliar — campaigning as a front-runner. His camp is running from the Press to avoid gaffs & Democrats are running from Climate Change in the debates. As long as black people love Biden, HE WILL REMAIN THE FRONT RUNNER! Retirement looks good on him. He should consider staying retired. And the media should stop propping him back up after each debate when he plummets in the polls.
