A Bangladeshi man went into an ATM centre barefoot so that his boots wouldn’t make the premises dirty
The Bangladeshi’s action was recorded by @mat_yoe84, who was at the ATM centre when the former was withdrawing money from one of the ATMs.
@mat_yoe84 was intrigued by the man’s actions and recorded him throughout the incident but did it in such a way so that the man’s face wouldn’t be visible to the audience to safeguard his privacy.
As the man exited the ATM centre after withdrawing money, it was revealed that he had left his boots outside the premises.
Furthermore, some dirt can be seen near the soles of the shoes, alluding to them being dirty due to the nature of the Bangladeshi man’s profession.
@mat_yoe84 then praised the man and gave him the thumbs up, to which the man replied,
“My boots are dirty. I don’t want the floor here to get dirty as many people walk around here.”
@mat_yoe84 then told the man that many people wouldn’t do such a considerate thing as what he did before asking the man where he was from. The man answered that he was from Bangladesh before making his way.
In the overlaid text of the video, @mat_yoe84 asserted,
“You have such impeccable manners. Truly, I am embarrassed.”
