We are a family owned business who values each and every team member. We have high standards for team members to treat one another with respect on and off the job and to extend that respect to all our customers as well. We understand our team members have a life outside of work so we expect team members not to call off work unless there is a real emergency so as not to interrupt life plans for others. There is no "I" in team--we are all stronger together. Our philosophy is simple--"Come to work on time as scheduled, do the job you were hired to do, go home and enjoy family and friends!" Generally, we open our doors at 5am or 6am each day and we close our doors at 6pm. We know our team members work hard every day of the year. That is why we do close on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day so that team members may enjoy time off with family and friends.
If you are a positive, upbeat individual who enjoys serving people, this job is for you!
