| − | ** {{anchor|Tina Craven}}'''[[Tina Craven]] ({{nee}} Lake, formerly Kelso)''' (voiced by [[Alexandra Moffitt]]) – Tina is the slightly overweight, greying, over-the-hill owner of [[Craven Gifts]], and Ava's boss. Her physical appearance greatly resembles [[wikipedia:Florence Henderson|Florence Henderson]], particularly her hairline, and she has a habit of hosting employee discussions in her bathroom. Originally hailing from Nashville, Tina was historically known for her modest start in business and general business smarts. These attributes have since been worn away by life and been replaced with many habits which often come in the way of her business decisions. Tina is a compulsive gambler to the point where she will use company profits to continue gambling, even betting in underground events. Also like Henderson, Tina is a chauvinist, alcoholic, and adulterer. It is often implied that Ava reveres Tina and that, in Ava's eyes, the two have a close relationship. Compared to Ava who is the ultimate model of a good employee, Tina's vices require Ava to keep an extremely close eye. Tina refers to Ava as her "[[wikipedia:Golden Goose|Golden Goose]]" implying Ava is the only reason her business remains afloat and thus she would never fire her. Ava has used the threat of quitting to capitulate Tina's transition from things Ava found unsavory. Her health is questionable as she has suffered numerous infarctions and has had several cardiovascular surgeries including valve replacements. Despite her less than desirable traits, she has an ethical side although she planted evidence on Ava for murder rather than let her then-husband be arrested. Tina retires from Craven Gifts in a season 6 episode after marrying Quillsville [[Lee Kelso (Queen of the Willis)|Mayor Lee Kelso]]. Tina also owns Sweethearts Restaurants, Fox 11 and CBS 40 Quillsville, ABC 7/21 Port Melissa, NBC 5 Detropolis and CBS 28 Michiana Falls.

| − | ** {{anchor|Jane Jill}}'''Jane Jill''' (voiced by [[Alexandra Moffitt]]) – Jane Jill is a truck driver and co-worker with Ava at Craven Gifts. She has a drinking problem and has a habit of calling people she speaks to "baby", regardless of their gender or level of familiarity with her.

| − | ** '''Adrienne Fansler''' (voiced by [[Robyn Hurd]] from 2006-2011, [[Breeanna Sorensen]] since 2019) – Adrienne is a good-natured German-American truck driver at Craven Gifts. Originally she spoke with a very weak accent. In the episode "[[Adrienne-cilable Differences]]," Adrienne forcibly befriends Ava after a nasty fight with her husband. Adrienne ends up moving in with the Willis for a short time eventually developing a pathological attachment to the Willis family, but quickly patches things up with her husband after a fed-up Ava kicks her out. Adrienne nearly lost her house due to rent increases when property values in her neighborhood skyrocket when Angie began selling working class housing to upper-middle class Millennials. To solve the problem, Angie helped the neighborhood value decline when she fabricated the area as uncool by making it appear as if typical middle-class families were moving in prompting the millennials to leave. Afterwards she applied and became a homeowner. While a hard worker, she has poor fiscal habits, often spending money on lavish outdoor parties to celebrate any seemingly significant event such as her son's bar mitzvah or becoming a homeowner. Her last name is revealed in "[[Ten Years to Life]]" by Tina Craven after she is mentioned she became the assistant manager of Craven Gifts.

He often uses Facebook during work hours and ignored Ava when she asked him for a down to business approach. In turn, Reginald is briefly fired when some of his Facebook friends mistook Tina for Ava and brutally beat her up. He sought revenge against Ava by making rude comments about her and Craven. After sifting through the blogs, she confronts Reginald for his behavior at Sweethearts Restaurant and eventually makes amends with him. After being rehired as an accountant, Reginald takes down the blogs and rearranges it to a down to business approach like Ava wanted. He is not to be confused with the similarly named Reginald John, who is also voiced by Luka Runecraft.

| − | ** '''April "Rashanna" Bonds''' (voiced by Shauna Guy in the first apperance, [[Lanise McClannhan|Lanise White]] in later apperances) – She first appeared as a comedian and traffic school instructor.

This forces Tina to move in with Dan. He promotes Ava to manager and attempts to seduce Ava in a gas-powered hot tub. However, the interest was not reciprocated. He brags to Tina about this, Tina, in turn, surprises Ava with a loaded shotgun expressing her jealousy. He and Tina reconcile, but later on, in "Quillsville Cold Case", Crob Bob has left Tina for good and gets involved with Julie Crawford (Ava's ex-sister-in-law).

| − | ** '''Raymond "Ray" Grissom''' (voiced by [[Devin Martin]]) - A disgraced former manager at Craven Gifts and recurring nemesis of Ava Willis and the Craven Gifts. His harsh feelings toward Willis stemmed from bitterness over Ava Willis being promoted to assistant manager instead of him, believing Ava Willis may have pulled in some "special favors" for the job. Although Grissom often harasses Ava Willis, he has also been sympathetic and even helpful when he knew that he and the sales staff were being harassed/targeted by genuine deadbeat customers. As of season seven (episode "Hostile Takeover in Quillsville, Indiana"), Grissom was demoted to assistant manager of Craven Gifts North in {{city-state|Noblesville|Indiana}}. Grissom returns and attacks Adrienne Fansler and April Sack for merchandise tampering before being confronted by Ava Willis. In episode ("Time of the Retailing Essence"), it was revealed that Grissom himself was the one who had stolen the merchandise, and had attempted to frame Adrienne for it. After being exposed, Adrienne finally got the opportunity to turn Grissom in the Retailer Commission, which she did with great pleasure and also proceeded to walk through the sales floor with Grissom as all the personnel looked on. It is also revealed that Grissom had been stealing cars from the Dan Skillman for a 20-year period under the alias of ''Cartman Stetler'' and also threatening the Skillman's manager to destroy his job if he doesn't help him by not telling the others his felonies, as well as other items he felt nobody would miss from the merchandise floor. Grissom was also responsible planting the bomb that killed a customer, though his intended victim was April Sack. He stated the reason behind the thefts and trying to cover it up with the bomb was for money, feeling he wasn't sufficiently compensated from a financial standpoint for his sacrifice at Craven Gifts. After being arrested by Lilly Rush, Grissom is awaiting trial on these charges, including capital murder.
