They were two supervisors, Emily an Administrative Coordinator and Kassie a Back Room Coordinator. Emily would help out every once in while in the backroom. Emily didn't (and still doesn't) enjoy going out with people for drinks or any social activities. So when Kassie invited her to Six Points Tavern for Kassie's birthday get together, Emily was prepared to say "nah, I am good." However she decided to do something different for once and went and had deep conversations and clicked as really good friends. After that day there were several trips to local St Johns bars like The Ranger or one of their very favorites Maries. Kassie later introduced Emily to her dogs Kahlua and Brandi. Both dogs were their world. They lost Kahlua at the age of 16 over a year ago. Brandi is now 9 and has the whole house wrapped around her paw. Especially in Kassie and Emily's world. Brandi is so important to them, that she will be the ring bearer on the big day. Brandi makes her mamas live by the simple quote tattooed on Emily's arm "be the person your dog thinks you are." They spoil her with car rides, snacks, endless toys, hours of belly rubs and it has been heard to kick Kassie out of bed so she can snuggle with her other mama. Kassie and Emilys TJ MAXX careers didn't last forever because they moved on to better things. Kassie is on her way to being a manager for Jiffy Lube and has found out how fond she is of working on cars. Especially when it comes to her beloved Jeep her dad has worked really hard on to be the sand crawler, mudding and daily driver BEAST it is. Emily works for Toyota of Portland now. Her dream job is to work with animals and their behaviors. She likes to know why and how things work. She loves escaping to the beach every chance she gets. Hanging out with her niece Harper who will be the flower girl. Also tries to spend every moment she can with Kassie, Brandi and the newer addition to the family the kitty Rocky.
