For those of you who have not seen the 16 minute dramatization of my story of “Johnny the Bagger®,” you can preview it here. It is a wonderful, very realistic version of the true story about how one young man who was a grocery bagger with Down syndrome changed the entire culture of his store after hearing me speak. One of the ideas I shared with the audience of over 3000 grocery store employees inspired Johnny to add his personal signature to his work by putting a “Thought for the Day” in all the groceries he bagged.
In the movie, you will see the skeptic, the cynic, and the manager who had no idea what was going on…… as well as all the delighted customers who were willing to wait much longer in Johnny’s line rather than go anywhere else. There are poignant parts, funny parts, and parts that will make you want to cheer. When you finish, I guarantee you will feel good all over!

Over 7 million people have also watched the 3 minute version of the story with the words set to music which you can likewise preview, under the book, “The Simple Truths of Service” with DVD.
So many people have been inspired with the hope that they CAN make a difference, no matter what their job is, by Johnny’s story, that I want everyone to see it. Please forward these links to your friends and co-workers so that they, too, can choose to be “Johnny’s” every single day. How blessed I feel to have been the catalyst for this story and how much better our world would be with more people like Johnny!
