Cuban-born UPS driver's reaction to first paycheck goes viral
PHOENIX, Ariz. (WKRC) -
A UPS driver who was born in Cuba went viral after his wife recorded him getting his first paycheck.
Yoel Diaz says, before he came to the US, he was struggling so much he could barely fill his refrigerator.
"Water, water, water, five, ten eggs, water," Diaz said, was usually all he had in it.
Back then, he was working as a computer science teacher for $12 a month.
"This is my first hourly paycheck that I feel every hour counted, that every hour of work has importance in my life and that I know I can work hard for something," Diaz said in the video. "I can't compare that emotion with anything, because I never had that in my country."
