Inspiration to Go: Joseph Embry

This McDonald’s worker’s positive attitude helps the people around him–customers and staff alike.


[MUSIC PLAYING] I just be myself and just try to just talk about the day, you know? And just say something to encourage them, you know? Because life is rough. You have to go and do work and it sometimes can be very stressful. So I try to look at it from all perspectives and just try to relate. Just try to relate to people. 

I will just try to encourage people as much as I can with the Lord through circumstances that they’re going through. Because a lot them come in feeling depressed, sad, and just mad at the world, you know? I just try to be that light the Lord wants me to be and tell them sometimes what the Lord wants me to tell them. 

I maintain a positive attitude because of the joy the Lord gives me every day. And because of the joy it gives me, it gives me strength to keep my composure in the face of adversity. And different people I run into, they’re not very positive. And I just try to just come and love, always come and love. And that’s how you reach people. You know? And that’s just what I do. [LAUGHS]
