27-year-old Tyrone Smith goes viral for having 9 odd jobs
“I’m glad that he does what he does. He’s a true hustler,” Cheryl Eschete said. Smith drew a picture for her husband on Valentine’s Day.
Everything began after Smith lost his job of three years. At the time he was working at an energy company when an oil field went down.
“I cried because I was there for a long time,” Smith said.
Once he lost his job making simple decisions about whether to buy food or get gas became an everyday struggle. Therefore, he started doing odd jobs.
“Lawncare, pressure washing, moving services. I rent bounce houses,” Smith said.
Some of those jobs include drawing portraits of families and washing dishes in Houma homes. But his business did not really take off until a video about his services surfaced on social media and turned things around. Currently his nine odd jobs are blossoming.
“He didn’t have the highest education, right. But he didn’t let that stop him from pursuing what he wanted to do,” Morris Chaisson said. “Like he just took it and ran with it and he’s flourishing.”
“It’s very cool that I could turn nothing into something,” Smith said.
Smith story gives inspiration to his community.
“Tyrone is inspirational to me,” Chaisson said. “Seeing his hard work, his hustle. It drives me to be a better version of myself because he had all odds against him.”
