| HIST | of Sumter, South Carolina Date Published: March 21, 2009 Cheryl Morse: administrative specialist Annabelle Robertson / The Item Cheryl Morse, 58, is an administrative specialist for the Department of Social Services who’s job entails helping people that request public assistance by taking applications for food stamps. Like many people who work for the state, Cheryl Morse, 58, feels a real calling for her job. Each day, she gets to help people get one of life's most basic necessities — food. Morse mans the front desk on the fourth floor of the Department of Social Services, taking applications for food stamps. And every now and then, God also prompts her to do a little something extra for those people, she said. "I'm not bragging, because it's not me," said the administrative specialist. "It's just God, telling me I have to act." Once, Morse said, she heard the Lord tell her that she needed to provide Christmas gifts for a young woman who came to her window. She did. Later, she learned that the woman's husband had been out of work for months and that they could barely feed their three small children — much less purchase presents for the holidays. Another time, she noticed an applicant holding a rake, and asked if he would be willing to rake her yard. "You have to be careful, especially when you're a single woman," said the divorced mother of two grown boys. "But if I listen to the Lord, He tells me who to help." 1) WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO WORK FOR DSS? I love people, and I love to help people. I have a purpose in life, especially now that my children are grown. God has me right where He wants me. 2) WHAT IS THE BEST THING ABOUT YOUR JOB? The employees of DSS are my family. I can't tell you how much I love the people I work for. 3) WHAT'S THE HARDEST THING ABOUT THE JOB? Seeing the desperation on people's faces who are applying for public assistance. 4) HOW HAS THE RECESSION AFFECTED YOU? Not as hard as others, because I have a fulltime job. I really empathize with the thousands of people who have lost their jobs due to the corporate greed for wealth. 5) WHAT DO YOU THINK OF PRESIDENT OBAMA? I like him and I support him 100 percent. He stepped up and is trying to unravel the financial damage that almost caused a worldwide meltdown, and I think we're going to make it. Somebody pulled the reins just in time. — Annabelle Robertson [1, 4] | |
