Here I gained much store experience and was put under a lot of pressure of the Christmas demand. I gained experience with trouble customer and dealt with situations in a calm professional way. I was also at times put under the duty of managing deliveries and filing and ordering game discs. This was a key part of the job because this exercise kept the shop running at optimal efficiency.

My customer handling and attitude towards people was impeccable and I never relayed a negative attitude to customers and aimed to be as helpful as I could be.
