Numbers

It can be quite informative to listen to an angry customer sometimes .. A happy customer is a happy employer. It does however throw them a bit when I just agree with what they say and solve their query quickly. I have an excellent professional relationship with my co-workers, which gelled relatively pleasantly with the company environment, and the company’s values. People assisted one another. We worked as a team to solve problems and learned new skills to reach our team objectives. I have excelled with my learning opportunities and I developed my skills and experience in numerous different ways . When not all requirements are met or given when placing or processing an order. When people are not communicating in the proper channels & not following proper procedures.

Pros: Leaving at 16H00 every Second Friday
Cons: working until 18H00

To provide good customer service and comunicating skill

Am enjoying working for Smollan it's a good company. Even though you know that if you going to work you must work not waisting time talking with your work colligue. Monday it use to have to much job and Friday. My work colligue are good people we help each other every time also the stomer manager is a good person who understand other peoples problem. I have learnt working with customers how to provide good service to the customers and how to handle a dificult customer. The thing that i enjoy most is the time i arrive at work i know by that time i have too much job than to do a simple job and get finish fast i don't like that. When the is a promotion of more than 3 product

Pros: the are opportunities for promotions
Cons: 6 hours a day
