We hired our first employee today - Kevin Fink - who will be our Assistant Manager. Kevin currently works for Home Depot in Chicago where he is the Kitchen Design / Appliance department supervisor. He has been with Home Depot for 7 years and has worked in most of the departments and was also at an Expo store for awhile. He has been planning to move to San Diego and saw our ad on Craig's List when he was searching for job opportunities. Good timing for both of us.
Another Ace truck arrived this morning and the store is full of green totes of merchandise. Two more visual merchandisers came on board today and they are quickly putting up the new merchandise. Our most nostalgic department - automotive - is now set. It's only 8' of display - I guess that is actually a section, not a department.
Check out the glove section - first of all, why do we need so many different kinds of gloves? It's a bit ridiculous. Secondly, what is with all the pink gloves? The brand name on some of them is "Tuff Chix". I think Pam will verify that Tuff Chix don't wear pink gloves.
