Summary

I have previous experience with Family Dollar/Dollar Tree and at my current job I make sure the store stays clean, merchandise is front faced and organized, I always greet my customers no matter what shift I am on. I strive to do my very best and I do ask questions when I am confused or need more clarification. Cleaning and organizing are a few things I enjoy doing and I do not mind stocking because it is fun to me.
