I was taken around by the Warehousing Supervisor. The first
section we visited is the Receiving Section. This section is
a place where goods coming into the warehouse are received and
they returned goods or newly ordered merchandise. Naturally
there are two sections within the receiving department one for
freshly ordered merchandise and the other for rethirxd goods.
