Managers
If you look up the definition of a manager, coach or team lead. None of them apply in my club.
Supervisors
Managers are the worst because they weren't trained correctly, they don't know company policy at all. I've been with sams for 17yrs and they all have no clue.
Horrible company
I have never seen a company ran so badly. Don't get me started on horribly managers and corporate doesn't seem to care, so they are just as bad as managers. The apples don't fall far from the trees.

Walk in coolers
So my club is finally getting the produce/dairy walk in coolers in a few months. What's the pros/cons of these bad boys? I'm so excited considering I'm the lead over those areas!
