Ball of Bands
November 6, 2014
This is a ball of rubber bands, it is larger than a softball. It is very old. I started working at Roche Bros Supermarket in Millis the day it opened, 1987, 88? I handed out carriages saying “Welcome to Roche Bros.” I held a ton of jobs there, bagger, grocery stocker, night crew, dairy, deli, meat dept, and maintenance over 7 years. Looking back, I loved working there, I met great people, learned a ton and had fun. I also made this rubber band ball. Slowly, one band at a time, over those 7 years. Now, that I think about it, I might had violated some sort of office supply policy. I found it in an old box, it has lost many bands, and it looks like it is on the verge to lose more. I think it should be displayed as my Roche Bros. trophy.
