Thank you for your review! We’re so glad to hear how much you loved working on the team! We also understand that being called in frequently and rotating between stores can be challenging. While flexibility is sometimes needed to keep operations running smoothly, we know it’s important to balance that with personal time and predictability. Thank you again for your dedication and all that you brought to the team. We wish you the best in your next chapter!
