What you'll need to have

• You love challenges…you seek them to solve them (not to create them, though!)

• You have an amazing attention for detail and can effortlessly juggle multiple priorities while keeping a smile on your face
• Your customer service skills are top notch – you meet all customers with compassion and understanding, can handle long queues, and can assess a problem and deliver a solution quickly.
• Your coordination skills are top notch – you can brush your teeth, iron your clothes, feed the dog, make a cup of coffee, and just get things done in a beautiful, quick, effortless sequence (or something like that!)
• You are quite comfortable with computers and are generally technology-savvy
• You are totally cool with working in a physically demanding, fast-paced, environment (where you may have to lift heavy items that weigh up to 50 lbs. at any given time)
