Read moreThere is one young man who works the register often who has absolutely ZERO customer service skills! There is always a sour look on his face, rarely does he greet me when I enter the store, displays a lack of product knowledge, and he never says thank you or have a nice day. The vibe is always dry and negatively charged. The location is convenient and this is the only reason I continue to shop there but it’s quickly losing its appeal because of the lack of...
