Riggins Dore, Surrey Street Store Manager, says:
“Dwayne Thomas is on his second stint with the company and we happily welcomed him back. He works extremely hard and is always the first one to come to ask if there is anything else he can work on. He goes the extra mile day in and day out.”
Willie Leblanc, Assistant Store Manager, also adds:
“In my eyes, Dwayne is a make-it-happen type of guy. He is very talented at fixing things. He worked with us before and moved away but came back to work with us and we are proud to have him back. His work speaks for itself. Dwayne exhibits outstanding performance and has a great personality.”
