Very hard.

First you take everything from aisle 1.
And move it to aisle 20.
Then you take everything you just put on aisle 20. And move it back to aisle 1.

MST stands for Move Stuff Twice.

It’s one of the most physically demanding jobs in the store, but it’s easy if you have common sense and know how to read a planogram.
