A schoolboy has been hailed an 'old-fashioned gent' after washing his uncle's entire fleet of vehicles so he could take his crush out to McDonald's and pay for her - managing to bag himself a job in the process. Lee Robinson received a text from his nephew Lloyd Catlow, 13, asking if he had any odd-jobs available in exchange for some pocket money, so invited him to his workplace
The youngster 'never thought of asking for money for free' and instead hoped to earn a 'few quid through hard work' so he could take a girl from school out on a date. Lee, who's an operations director of a commercial cleaning service company, said Lloyd spent two hours washing the exterior of six vehicles and was 'over the moon' with the £20 he earned.
But the 36-year-old was so impressed with Lloyd's can-do-attitude and the 'great job' that he did that he offered him a job - and he'll now be cleaning the vehicles, inside and out, every month. Lloyd even managed to upgrade his date from McDonald's to a local milkshake parlour and a post his uncle Lee shared online praising his strong work ethic has amassed more than 14, 592 likes and comments.
