A question for the people in the stores. Anderson Award

I have a question about the Anderson Award recipients and how long they stay after winning.

What is your longest tenured Anderson Award Winner?

How many do you currently have working in your store?

(For those who don’t know what that is, The Anderson Award is something that is voted on in each store, by the employees, for the employee that most exemplifies what it means to be a Greenvest)

As we approach the sale date… The Greenvests prepare

Good luck all you greenvests tomorrow!

I know some stores will be super busy and based on recent votes, some might not be… either way…

Stay hydrated, make sure you eat… and get your breaks!

The Trader Joe’s bags were holding a seance in REI break room.

TJ’s is the closest food source to our store and at least once a week, the bags unite and hold a meeting to discuss REI employees that have moved on!

If you know, you know!

BTW… lots of things going on to second clearance today… it is good to see the prices drop!

So I was there when this got pulled from the box for the build… We all started to crack up. it was an order bike for a customer, so we called them up and asked them if they wanted it this way? They had ordered another bike at the same time and chose the other one.

We offered a discount, but they still wanted the other bike… So out on the floor it goes.

I am still scratching my head on how it happened?

So what is the best Manufacturer mess up you’ve seen?
