Actually we have had an excellent year but I did spend two hours late this afternoon working at our Sevierville Food City grocery store as a bag boy (okay, bag man?). The reason I as well as several other local business people did this was to raise money for United Way of Sevier County. We were bagging for tips and raised a lot of money for this charitable cause. After working from 4pm until 6pm today I must admit that I appreciate much more the hard work that the grocery store employees perform. I’m quite certain that my injury prone lower back will be complaining tomorrow but it was in an odd sort of way more than a little fun. Good cause, good people, and good results – what more could you ask for??
I have never had anyone bag my groceries in a coat and tie!! I need to move up there permanently
Only once a year does this happen here. Reminded me of how hard these young folks work but it was all for a good cause!
