The first day I lived in Gordo, Alabama, my neighbor across the street, Sabra Powell, asked me if I would like a job. Well, yeah!! So I go downtown and apply at the Yellow Front Store & am hired IF I can get a work permit from the principal. I go with Daddy to the school & ask Mr. Gibbs for a permit, acquire the same, & go to work the next Saturday.
I worked there through the first semester of twelfth grade & enjoyed every minute of it. Was the work hard? Sometimes. But the things learned & friends made worth more than any difficulties.
