It's our goal to ensure our associates know where all products are and what is in stock so they can provide customers with a complete solution. Thus, we do ask that you work on putting merchandise in its proper place so you can easily find it for customers. Most of our merchandising is completed when the store is closed so that you can take care of customers when we are open. Sincerely, Angie Miller VP-HR
