Mark Wahlberg bags groceries at hometown market where he held first job

foxnews.com:

Mark Wahlberg is getting back to his roots. In a video he shared on Instagram, the actor returned to a grocery store called Stop & Shop in Quincy, Massachusetts, where he worked as a teenager.

His purpose, he said, was to get his old job back. "All right, right here is where the whole hustle started," he said in the video as he stood in the parking lot in front of the store. "In 1998, I was working at this Stop & Shop on Newport Avenue in Quincy, but it was over there," he continued, pointing across the street. "They moved the store." While he said 1998, it seems clear he meant 1988.

He was 17 that year, and by 1998 he'd already become a star with Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch, and his acting career was thriving. "I was bagging groceries," Wahlberg continued, "$3.65 an hour while I was right up the street getting my driver's ed.The same day I turned 17, I got my driver's license, I bought a Pontiac LeMans s---box for $200 … We're gonna see if I can get my job back." After entering the store, he approached a checkout lane and kindly said "Hi" to the cashier before beginning to open up a paper bag.  "I'm getting my old job back," he told her, greeting the customer as well.

The star grabbed a large bag of oranges and asked if the shopper wanted them double-bagged because they were so heavy, making it clear he hadn't forgotten the ins and outs of his first job.
