Laid off bartender-turned-lawn care-worker Scott Briggs stumbled across a brand-new challenge Thursday. But don’t worry, this story ends like so many others – Memphis answered the call!
For those who didn’t get a chance to read the first feature story in The Daily Memphian about Briggs’ journey earlier this week, the inspiring former BarWare employee was laid off from his job making cocktails due to the coronavirus and unable to collect an unemployment check.
