Close

v. To be the last DAY-SHIFT person in a DEPARTMENT to CLOCK OUT: “Who's closing?” means either which person in a particular DEPARTMENT, or, more often, which STORE MANAGER will be in charge at the end of the day. “Are you closing?” means will you be the (un)lucky one who has to do all the routine final cleaning, straightening up, and/or other DEPARTMENT chores.

NOTE: The GROCERY CLOSER typically has to tidy up and BLOCK at least the FRONT END (meaning both FAST-WALL and EVZ), and GET AROUND to all ENDS, 3-WAYS, and WINGS.
