changes in Davis Square Goodwill

[moonshadow.livejournal.com]

I was at the Davis Square Goodwill yesterday, and boy, had things changed!

The last time I was there, perhaps a week and a half ago, the clothing was basically exploding everywhere. There were many extra racks out and they were all so full of unsorted clothes that you couldn't move anything. The extra racks also made it hard to move around the store or get in at the racks that were less full, in the back.

Yesterday, all the extra racks were gone. The store looked cleaner and more organized than I'd seen it in many months. (I'm a Goodwill junkie. Can't help myself.) The clothes were well-sorted and they were playing soothing music. I asked the lady behind the desk what had happened. She said, "There have been some changes." I asked for more details but she pretended not to have heard me. However, I couldn't help but notice that the somewhat loud, very friendly male manager guy didn't seem to be there.

Does anybody have more information about this than I do? What's going on at Goodwill?

Aw no! I'm going to miss Wayne (the cool manager), though I'm glad he got a proomotion. Is Davis Square now stuck with Mr Bitchface (whose name I have not bothered to learn)? Or did the tall clerk who looks kind of like a drag queen get promoted?

Another change that took place at the Davis Goodwill is that they got kind of flooded a while back. That's why the basement now stinks.

I think I saw the new manager on Sunday, talking to a customer in the basement about all the children's books. (She wore glasses.) I am glad store overall and the kids' area are looking better, although my husband and I will miss "dumpster diving" for toys for kiddo.

The new manager is a tall woman with curly hair, as near as I could tell.
