Rhonda: I love my co-workers and meeting new people. I just really like the job!

HI: What is one interesting story that has happened to you on the job?
Rhonda: One man came down to the basement and stole an employee's clothes. He was looking for his clothes and about thirty minutes later he walks out with the employee's clothes on!
