10am, worker was beyond rude me for coming up to the counter before I was called. No sign saying wait to be called… I was SO nice with my “good morning! : )” I’ll be sure to be rude next time so ya’ll can continue to get the customer you deserve and want 🥰😘

Although short staffed and after waiting almost 30 minutes for a supervisor, Krissy (unsure of spelling), the supervisor not only was professional and helpful, went above and beyond in assisting us with our issue.
