Rent One ‘Delivery Tech Rodeo’ stirs up friendly competition
Rent One technicians participated in the company’s first ever "Delivery Technician Rodeo" last week, honing install skills and team building across Rent One’s seven regions and making the front page of the August 19 edition of The Paragould Daily Press in the process.
Delivery technicians competed in seven events including: range cord hook-up, removal and reinstall of fridge freezer door, installing anti-tip bracket on range, computer memory install, TV hook-up wit blu-ray DVD, dollying and lifting techniques and vehicle backing.
The winners in these categories received trophies and techs also competed in a team workout and written testing and training.
Rent One Manager Tim Daugherity said the competition was a great way to combine training and recognition.
"We spend a great deal of money training the delivery techs and we have some really skilled technicians here," Daugherity told the Paragould Daily Press.
Regional competition continues through September and one store will be chosen as the best over all store. That store will then go on to compete against other stores in Illinois and Kentucky. the overall winner will win cash and prizes.
