Not Always the Smart-@$$

I wasn’t always a smart-aleck in the work group-chat, though I’m sure I’ve given that impression by now. No, I was actually quite helpful, and was called upon by many for ideas or information, believe it or not. See, other than being a hard-worker, I have this desire to know about my job in as much detail as I can possibly find–which means that I will spend quite a bit of time reading through every policy and procedural manual, look at every possible internal and external publication, and look as far ahead and far back in any series of memos, emails, etc. I want to know my job–even if it isn’t something that really interests me. I also want to share any knowledge I gain with my peers, as I believe that if we all know our functions better, the more productive we can be.

Anyway, I have a large number of images that were created just to assist my fellow managers:

In October of 2018 we were given direction to bring out all of our previous years’ Christmas leftovers and set them out for clearance.


In June of 2018 we had a fairly large clearance event, as well as an attempt to drive sales of our seasonal merchandise hard.


October 2018’s Halloween merchandise.


A push for hiring just before the holidays–plus I had just transitioned into this lazy store and drove a few people out.
