“You can’t just stand around like an idiot. You have to have a reason to keep alive.”
Wise words! Keep up the good work, Benny. You are the man!
hes still alive i looked up his name hes 100 now
Fordguyjames,
And he probably still won’t take a break. 😁
@@Archer335 covid had him stop his work. stop and stop n shop celebrated his 100th birthday
Fordguyjames, 👍🏽
Wish I could love this video instead of like. You are inspirational Benny, continued blessings...
❤❤❤
This man just inspired me to work harder! He is a great example to all of us who take our work seriously. Ty for this video.
Yes work harder but don't let the company abuse you
This man is the embodiment of American spirit.
He is also the embodiment of the immigrant spirit.
My great-grandma lived to 95. Her sister, my great-great-aunt, lived to be 97. And her other sister is still alive at 97, volunteering to help kids read at a local school. She was even given the Outstanding Citizen award by her local township a few months ago. I hope that I got some of the longevity genes from them, and that I'll still be around at 97 and living life to the fullest like Benny. (Although I think the longevity might only be passed down to the women in my family, but I can still hope).
keep up with your good work!
This man's a real character! What an endearing segment. Go, Benny, go!
What a great and funny guy. Probably can’t give him longer than 4 hour shifts or he’d legally have to take a break!
That's what gives this guy a purpose, to get up in the morning. God bless you Benny...
I love him!!!😊❤️
God bless you benny🙏👏🏻💕you're such an inspiration💕
Okay but who disliked this and for what reason. This needs an explanation
To those that dislike this video It speaks volume of their values and work ethics.
Might be getting old doesn't work for everybody.
good for Benny! should do part 2 asked him about his motorcycle 1:12.
Some of the people I work with everyday really need to see this''
People like Benny need to speak to other generations. Work ethics are low.
God bless this fine gentleman!
Way to go Benny! So full of life!
Love that guy!!
Too bad the work ethics aren’t like that anymore
God bless him
I hope I’m like Benny when I get older. Never stop.
Thank You Steve!
You always let me know that America is is going to be okay!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow.
Yes! Be useful until the day God takes you! Go Benny go! ❤😁
Amen! There’s a reason for each and everyone in this world!:)
This man is America!!
Love ya Bennie ♥️
God bless Benny!!
Picking up that spaghetti made me wince.
I will watch anything Steve Hartman makes . He’s a younger Harley’s Kuralt!
Benny MOTIVATION GENERATION
Great Video Thanks Man
Be the Best YOU can BE ROCKSTAR
He passed away on December 25 2022. On his 100th birthday the Stop and Shop celebrated.
Thank you Benny for showing everyone the importance of doing what you need to at any age.
He is a real trooper. I hope they raise money for relaxation and gifts.
Having a purpose in life makes all of the difference...without it well...what’s the point in being alive?
OMG Bennie you are it!!
“You need to contribute at all times”.
Steve: I have a story idea. How do I get it to you? I promise it's a good one.
Too bad more people don’t feel like him.
People should never retire!!
Benny must be the manager
Type A. Nothing more....
He's 97 years old so all you guys in your 20s and living at home get a job
The joke at 1:24 💀
B my Grandpa!
O.k...I admit it, even The Verbally Abusive Clown likes this guy.
Now, you know why they call his generation the greatest generation.
I dont like the condescending interviewer...something about him rubbed me the wrong way in this interview!!! Many blessings to Benny!!
Semiramis Bonaparte he is actually a compassionate person, he just had to speak loud so that Mr Benny can hear that’s all. I know it sounded like he was yelling a little :)
Steve was amazing and during the interview process did an amazing job with Benny. Showed Benny a lot of respect
Tricky messaging in this one...Working should be a choice, not a requirement to have full human dignity. Hopefully no one forgets golden years is a goal not all reach. Millennials prob. won't be allowed retirement without inheritance. If you have the option to appreciate life with loved ones or service acts on your terms without pressure, that's a true reward and balance. Bring required to work until you drop is not the purpose of human existence. Hope that message isn't misinterpreted.
It makes sense what your saying but in Benny's case he does not need to work. He works to keep his mind active and to socialize with others. He gets so excited for work.
He must have alot of quarters built up in Social Security a nice monthly check from Government.
