There was a lot of love for Mikey and Dylan on ‘This is Jobstown’ last night
The third episode of This is Jobstown hit our screens last night, and two people in particular stole the show, with many commending Mikey and Dylan for their hard work and determination.
Many will know Mikey from his work across the community, keeping areas clean and making sure the general appearance of Jobstown is maintained.
On last night’s show Mikey went through his daily ritual of picking up litter, explaining that he could easily collect up to five bags of rubbish a week.
Anyone who is up early enough in the morning will have spotted Mikey is the fields adjacent to the Jobstown House, and many on Twitter had kind words to say about the community volunteer.
Mikey, 70, spends 4 mornings a week picking up rubbish around #Jobstown. Volunteers on his own. @LordMayorDublin can you give him a medal!

Meanwhile, Dylan’s ambition to become a commercial airline pilot really struck a chord, and his positive outlook was certainly impressive.
Funding his own training as he works his way to getting his private pilot licence, Dylan plans to head to the US next year and build up his flying time ahead of hopefully securing a permanent position as a commercial airline pilot.
Many took to Twitter to praise his efforts, and everyone at the Echo and Echo.ie would like to wish him the very best for the future.
Hope Dylan make it he has ambition and seems to be level headed good luck #jobstown
