Ian Mauney has been with Best Buy’s Geek Squad (GSC) for twelve years, serving as a Parts Product Agent! Way to go Ian!

Ian loves to help Brenda and James sort the units as they come down the line to go out to the agents. Ian likes to conduct our chalk talks by telling everyone what they should be doing for the day and that we need to get it done fast so we can take care of our customers!!! Ian is a joy to work with. He never has a bad day and he always has that cute little smile when you talk to him.”  – Diana Atherton, Ian’s Supervisor

“Ian smiles so much, and smiles are contagious so Ian not only helps brighten GSC but he helps brighten the world! Thank you Ian for being with Best Buy & GSC for twelve years. You are amazing! You do a wonderful job for us and GSC loves your smiling face! Ian always seems to have such a good time at work. I love seeing that.”  – Lisa Asher, coworker
