0912 RealtySouth Otto
Lynda Thompson and John McGill sit atop “Otto” with other staff from the RealtySouth office in Mountain Brook Village.
John McGill got rid of his car in an unusual way.
His 22-year-old Mercedes “Otto” was the prize for a sort of random acts of kindness contest at the Realty South Cahaba Office in Mountain Brook Village.
For two months in the office, whenever someone saw someone else do something kind with no instruction and no recognition or reward, they put that person’s name on a card. Realtor Lynda Thompson’s name was drawn from the cards to win the car at the end of the project.
“It’s been a fun thing,” McGill said. “It is creating a real spirit of community.”
McGill saw coworkers noted for doing things like helping someone who had a sick family member or tidying up the exterior of their office.
