Letter of Performance – Best Buy
I truly enjoyed working at Best Buy. I’ve always kept up with the latest consumer technology. The social interactions with co-workers and thousands of unique customers made the experience so much fun.
Imagine my surprise in the computer department when a booming voice from behind asked “Excuse me. Can you help me?” I turned around only to see the Vice President of the United States with his Secret Service detail staring at me. Joe Biden resided just a few miles from this Delaware store. At the Florida store, I met Hulk Hogan (for the third time). When Shaquille O’Neal asked me for help, I personally sold him a Macbook Pro.
I always try to assist anyone who asks. I was happy to help our designated store Apple specialist get his dream job at Apple Park in Cupertino, California by tweaking his cover letter and résumé then offering coaching tips.
Selling skills with measurable objectives made the actual job competitively enjoyable.
Best Buy corporate contracted me to be their event photographer for the company national vendor show and reception.
After 5 years of part-time service at three big-box stores, I was ready to move on. The time at Best Buy was a refreshing chapter in my career life.
FUN FACT
I visited Circus World as a young boy in 1979 which would later become Boardwalk and Baseball. Years later the location would become Posner Park. The Best Buy Davenport store is on the exact site of the former Circus World.
