Doug’s advice to new employees is straightforward: « Have fun, that’s the most important thing, » he says. « It’s a people business. That’s what we do. » His proudest moment over the course of his 40-year career was becoming a store manager and it’s a role Doug still enjoys. « It’s a hands on position and you get to interact with great people every day and make a difference, » says Doug.
