I'm watching Nightwatch on A&E.
It is a really good reality show about the EMS, PD and FD on the night shift for New Orleans. The EMS picked up an older man that called because he was having a lot of pain in his foot and he was having trouble walking. Turned out, he worked nights at WalMart in a part of town that doesn't have buses run at night so he leaves 5 hours earlier than his shift to walk the 15 miles to his job at WalMart every day. The paramedic said: "There are people that can walk and won't walk 5 blocks and this guy walks 15 miles". The guy wasn't complaining, he was very matter-of-fact about it and said: "Well, I can't be late for my job every day". He made me teary.
