This bagger’s shoes were one inch bigger than his feet. 😭
By the end of my grocery run, I had three carts that were overflowing and it took me quite awhile to finish. Nabusy lola ninyo nung January eh, so my kids were already saying we will die soon 😝. Ayun sobrang dami tuloy ng kailangan i-restock.
I noticed however that this bagger’s work was so pulido. He was organized, made extra effort to make sure the boxes were secured with the straw ropes, and he worked fast! By the time, we were supposed to load the stuff in my car, walang ibang baggers na available para makatulong sa kanya. So he ended up pushing two carts and I pushed the other one. As we were walking, napansin ko that he was shuffling his feet. Sobrang luwag ng shoes nya 😥.
After he loaded the stuff, I gave him money to buy shoes. And then told him na maayos sya magtrabaho, ituloy nya lang. tapos wag nya ibigay sa nanay nya yung pera 🤣🤣🤣. Bili sya shoes.
He wiped his face. Naiyak. 🙃 thank you ng thank you, and even when he was walking away, punas pa rin ng punas.
Again, I am not sharing the story para magmukhang mapagbigay. My point is that our biggest investments as humans is in humans. Now, I don’t know if he will spend that money in something else. I don’t know if it will make a difference in his life. It did, in mine.
