I worked for Costco for almost a year. I won't speak for the company as a whole but my location sucked ass. The upper management were all incompetent egotistical morons who would bend over backwards to suck off the most brain damage and entitled customers. Blatant favoritism and sexism of the staff. Inconsistently applied punishments.
I liked most of my coworkers and floor leads but the upper management were some of the worst I have ever worked for in my entire life.
Workers being good people and management being full of incompetent sociopaths is an unfortunately common experience.
Ive worked at places like target and best buy as well. Costco was absolutely the worst I ever had. Decent benefits tho.
Costco is so greedy. Employees deserve more of that profit!
Profit = income - expenditures
Record profits = (highly productive workers) - (low wages)
It is a fundamental and indisputable fact. Record profits can only be achieved when the workers are paid unfairly for their contributions.
Workers deserve better.
So, there i was…pro union and striking and seizing the means of production but… I’ve been told the teamsters are the shitgibbon’s sycophants trying to hurt Costco over DEI policies. And contrary to the few posts here every mindless worker drone I know who works there has been happy. What gives?
I haven't heard about the DEI thing. My understanding is that they want a share of the record profits Costco made last year. Fair compensation for helping Costco get rich(er). It's literally in the article.
The vote is a direct result of the company’s continued failure to bargain constructively and refusal to present a fair contract offer that reflects the company’s record-breaking profits.
So, I dunno where you got your info from, but striking over DEI doesn't seem to be relevant to this case. Yes, the workers are happy, and they want to be fairly compensated for their contributions to the profits.
Source?
Just word on the street. Lol. I really don’t care anymore. Ask a simple question then get downvoted to hell. GFYs, you know what I mean? It’s strange though that all the posts I read said it was terrible working there then this one response says they’re happy but want more money because of record profits.
"Word on the street" is not a credible source either. Downvotes are appropriate.
Some word from the street:
That's not a credible source.
I’m not a source for anything you dolt. I asked a question. If you aren’t informed, feel free to not answer. And a meme is a perfect example of word on the street and word on the street is how i framed my question, not facts i learned while fucking your father (the crusty gent). And I dgaf about downvotes i was commenting on the idiocy. It appears i was correct though. It was an attack on Costco due to their defense of dei policies. The teamsters are only going to weaken themselves and unions all around with this chicanery and i think that’s not good for anything. So, in conclusion, get bent, gfy, and I’m headed to Costco for a cheesecake and a hotdog you salty losers.
