"I always wanted a job where I could meet so many people and never wear a tie. And my Crocs look a little like Roman sandals, so corporate had no objections to me wearing them."
Nelson's new duties include ribbon cutting ceremonies, visiting stores, and making public appearances at sporting events.
"I can't wait to appear at the new stadium at Frame Park in my toga handing out free pizza to all of the people looking for parking spots."
