Costco will fire them. It's basically unskilled labor who are already well paid.

Why would they strike?

the trend is that if the business is making more money, then the workers feel like they should be making more money.



And when the company makes less?

I prefer Sam's, so I would view that as an improvement.

How many stores are these unions isolated to? If they shut down these stores to eliminate the cancer before it spreads, how many stores would it impact?

How are you back?

Costco sucks balls, no curbside like Sam's, and always 90 Asians lined up at the gas pumps. H-E-B all day.

The bourbon selection at the Covington Costco is lame AF.

That's all I got...

Yep. Sams is quite better than costco. It's like the bucees crowd fanaticalism.

Shop and go for the win

Buy fewer vapes and stop getting loaded every weekend on brunch, all of a sudden you can live on what you're paid. Shocking.

Gave up my membership during Covid (LSS: they were mask-Nazis, and I was asked to leave the store by a dick-noser). NEVER going back.

Scanning with the Sam's app while we walk through the store and then paying through the app and walking out without even having our cart inspected is 20 times better than the best experience I ever had at Costco.

Scan 'n go is the shiznit. I can be in and out in ten minutes. Costco, 40m to get a picture taken, and all the simps "shopping" with their wives, screw all that noise.
