I am a transplant back to Baltimore, and the Safeway in Charles Village has consistently been one of the most positive parts of my routine. The staff is always kind and hardworking, but today I want to specifically recognize an employee named Baron.
I have watched Baron work over the years. He is almost always by himself, quietly focused, working hard, and never drawing attention to himself. He is the kind of employee who just gets the job done. Because of how focused he always is, I honestly expected that when I asked for help today, he might say no—and I would have completely understood.
This morning around 8:00 a.m., I was shopping for white grapes for a patient I care for. She is not able to get around easily, and one of her simple joys is having white grapes when I come back from the store. There were none available on the floor, and Baron was in the middle of unloading and checking in what looked like a very large shipment—many packages, clearly a lot of work.
Without hesitation, Baron said yes. He went all the way to the back, unpacked multiple boxes, and by the time I returned, he had gone through them and pulled the white grapes from the bottom of a box—specifically to make sure I could take them for her.
I was incredibly grateful, but more importantly, the woman I care for was absolutely thrilled. What Baron did may seem small to some, but it meant everything to her—and it meant a lot to me to see that level of care and consideration.
Safeway Charles Village is fortunate to have someone like Baron. His quiet dedication, work ethic, and kindness truly stood out today. Thank you, Baron, and thank you to the entire Safeway Charles Village team for all that you do. Cherise Eric ..Ms Dee and Stephanie all are very hardworking and accommodating as always..
