My main department I was hired on for was being the Bicycle Technician. But as I’ve worked there I have been around every department. It is versatile and expands my knowledge of many things I haven’t learned anywhere else.

The schedule for most part. The hours jump around differently everyday which is difficult if you do have a busier lifestyle or if things in life change unexpectedly.
