NEW YORK — An 82-year-old Walmart employee says she’s been overwhelmed by the kindness of strangers after a TikTok video of her at work went viral.
“I'm gonna put you on TikTok,” Rizzo continued. “I'm gonna make sure this goes viral and get you some help, Carman. I'm going to try my best. … Everyone, she’s 82 years old and working at Walmart. Let's help her out. Come on my TikTok friends. Thank you.”“We talked afterwards and I asked her, ‘If you want, I'll help you … I can do fundraising,’” Rizzo told “Good Morning America,” adding that she asked Kelly for permission to share the video beforehand.
Kelly, who said she has been working at the Walmart Supercenter in Apache Junction, Arizona, for nearly two years, explained to “GMA” she’s had to work to make ends meet after leaving her former job at another Walmart store during the coronavirus pandemic.
