Thursday turned out to be much of the same as what I have
been doing in the distribution center for the past week aside from two
things. First off, Nicky Swish, a.k.a.
the biggest frat bro on the face of the planet, has his bobble head giveaway
tonight. This also resulted in me
counting a lot of “Brohio” shirts that were sent up on Thursday to the novelty
stands around the stadium and the team shop.
And because it is his bobble head giveaway this evening, pallets which
held over a thousand Nick Swisher bobble heads made their way to the DC. Also, with Kipnis now back off the DL, a lot
of his bobble heads came in too.
Fast forward to Friday; I’m about to get down but before I can
do that I take a nostalgic journey back through the lower and middle
school. I said what’s up to the OG herself,
Ms. Beier and another fantastic teacher who goes by the name Mrs. O’Neill. Side note: first and third grade were
real. Anyways, I had a bit of a
different schedule that day so I didn’t have to be in until 1 p.m. on Friday. Once there, I made my way down to the DC and
helped finish up one of the last receptions of the day and then made the
journey down to Nancy Schneider who is the retail and concessions manager. Once there, her and I went up and around to
every single novelty stand two or three times and moved shirts, hats, and other
novelties around in order to draw the eye of the customer. Every little detail about where brands are
laid out, the placement of player t-shirts and making sure that the items on
sale were moved forward was taken into account.
It takes the eye of a professional to see all of this stuff and it was awesome
to see her go to work.
Then, after I was done on Friday, I watched Asdrubal pound a two-run monster over the right field wall, enjoyed copious amounts of dollar dogs and watched some snazzy jazzy fireworks. In general,
another two good days under the belt.
