“Current worker here! Despite what the one other person said, no one here actively talks on the phone unless absolutely necessary. There is only one worker here, who only works around around 15/16 hours at this store, can be a bit rude. Everyone else however have great customer service skills. I work the most out of everyone else here (35 currently) and try my best to be helpful and nice. Our management is great here as well so know that you are giving your money to people who genuinely cares about their employees. Our restroom is probably one of the cleanest and well kept out of most of all of them and is 1 private restroom. We are also known for some of the coldest drinks, as our in-wall coolers are kept at 31/32 degrees. Know that we do not sell any liquor. Do have something you need? We have a suggest box! Or just ask an employee to let our manager to get somethings. Edit since this seems to be a problem, I can ONLY give back 25¢ if the air pump isn’t working. Managements rules. So please don’t get mad at me when I’m not the one in control of it. Just remember; if it doesn’t work the first time it most likely won’t the second.”
