Last Days at Tri City - #4

At first it was a little tough, the whole project especially with term papers and other various projects due, my group and I who had joined me had pulled through the tedious tasks of Tri City Volunteer's potatoe/onion baging. Now as the Reaching for Equity project comes to an end i realize some key elements I learned just volunteering there, like never take anyting for granted, be very patient, and help others.

It was almost like a regular day working at Tri City Volunteer except, it was the last day. We thought we would have had some crazy last job to do but, really it was a chill day. We baged potatoes and onions what felt like hours (really 20 minutes). The boss there on the main floor then asked me to grab a mop and start moping the back half area. I started working on it after the first half of the place was done the other person had finished the front area. Then back to filing the carts with huge brown bags of food. It was almost time to leave, which meant we needed to clean up the stations and the floors. So various people with brooms started going at work on the floors. Others cleaning the tables and finally finishing the final hour and half of our Reaching for Equity Project!! :)
