The video quickly went viral and a GoFundMe account was created for the woman to receive donations from well-meaning people. In 24 hours, it had raised over $100,000.

"They saw that you're a very hard worker, obviously. We are all super proud of you, and we wanted to offer you the $110,000 that has been raised for you," he told the woman.

However, reacting to the video, some people faulted the woman as they claimed her reaction wasn't satisfying.
