      Your probably not lofting close to home. Also keep your spine perfectly vertical and lift with your knees, please do that because I used to not know what that meant and I had to lift tile (tile is the heaviest thing btw) and it hurt my back for a week and then I relazied what people mean when they say to lift with you knees. Please lift with your knees and look up a video on youtube about how to lift with your knees if you have to. Please just start doing that, trust me, it will save you from back pain

    Okay so a lot associated has all the same responsibilities as any other employee that greets you that's not a cashier but lot associates are specifically called to the loading bay where the concrete is. A lot associated will do things like wrangle carts and ask customers if they are finding everything okay until they get called to the lot via the walkie talkie. Home Depo has these smartphone with custom android called Zebra which is used for walkie talkie and customer assistance with products. The manager is actually a troll because I left my lock combination in my locker and I remembered that there was this chocolate taped to are lockers with a picture of a key on it and when I retrieve it from my car I realized that it was Candy and a paint can opener but not the backup key to my padlock.
