Jordan is the muscle of our group. He will go in and just set up all the tables and chairs, make sure everything is in the room that you will need. Once that is done, you are free to move things around in the room to better suit your day. You may or may not need things and he can get rid of those for you. All you need to do is ask, he is always happy to help.
