Dear Publix Bagger Boy
I love you.
I was watching you as you bagged my groceries. I watched you separate and combine like with like. I saw you push the pork to the side and keep it there until it was the right time to put it in the cart. I watched you delicately place the eggs in their bag. I watched you gingerly bag the fruits and vegetables so there would be no unisghtly bruising. When I saw that you had placed the bread and rice cakes on their end, backed by the flat pack of bacon for support, I thought I was in heaven.
Thank you thank you thank you, Publix Bagger Boy.

i thought you only tipped them when they carried the stuff to your car.

i believe that is true, but a good rule of thumb is to tip when someone does their job above and beyond the usual way.

I didn’t think you were allowed to tip them. Our grocery stores always have signs saying not to tip.
