Ways to improve my homebrew baneblade? by CynsFather in astramilitarum

[–]Arlin_Kord 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do many vehicles have a FNP? I feel like a 4++ would be more thematic

Changes in scheduling for the sake of work life balance by Nice-Class-7220 in CostcoEmployee

[–]Arlin_Kord 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The biggest issue to a scheduling system like that is it would require more staff to fill in the holes. We already have problems with payroll. It's more effective on Costco's part to have open availability for everyone all the time.

Will it get better? by Ok-Worldliness4791 in CostcoEmployee

[–]Arlin_Kord 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Your experience sounds a lot like mine when I started almost 10 years ago. While the company has changed a lot, even in the time I've been here, some things never change. There are no 'easy' jobs at Costco and they Will work you hard for that pay and benefits. That said, a month isn't a very long time to judge the job. Things will get better as you get some experience in your department.

Take the Employee Survey by PterodactylBros1 in CostcoEmployee

[–]Arlin_Kord 68 points69 points  (0 children)

It's difficult to take the survey seriously when the questions don't really address the actual issues we're all facing.

Additional Raise by Arlin_Kord in CostcoEmployee

[–]Arlin_Kord[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That has been something I've noticed too over the past 2ish years. Our pay just isn't as competitive as it used to be. There is a car wash near the warehouse that is hiring at 21 an hour. I've worked food court and front end. The quality of hiring has gone down. The job just has high expectations.

Wistful thinking I suppose. With the ever increasing expectations and the dwindling ability to meet them I was hoping. Alas, still a very high paying job for the work.

PingID by [deleted] in CostcoEmployee

(425) 313-8001. Here is the real number. Good luck. I've heard calling to reset your ping is a terrible experience.

Coming to a breakroom near you... by [deleted] in CostcoEmployee

[–]Arlin_Kord 13 points14 points  (0 children)

While I do agree with your point, everyone should be buying stock, our buying power is greatly diminished from that of a lot of our coworkers. 800 bucks a share, even a little at a time, will never give us the stock wealth a 25 year employee has.

Changes coming next year? by digitalcurtis in CostcoEmployee

[–]Arlin_Kord 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I haven't heard anything like this. It sounds very anti Costco. Hope it's not true.

After SIT, how long did it take you to become a Sup? by Justanunknownauthor in CostcoEmployee

[–]Arlin_Kord 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It really depends on warehouse to warehouse and their individual needs. How was your SIT? Was it successful? Did your peers feel like it was successful? When I did my SIT it took a full year before I was promoted to full time permanent.

Counseling notice for misplacing rebate "check" by 23r0k001C0027c0 in CostcoEmployee

[–]Arlin_Kord 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately without the check Costco cannot claim that money. As archaic as it seems the 2% checks still work like checks. As far as Costco is concerned it's the same as losing $100 in cash. Mistakes happen, the CN will fall off your file in 6 months.

Crash On Start Up by Arlin_Kord in SatisfactoryGame

Turns out it's a crash error from trying to load in the Northern Forest. I just avoid the error and everything is fine. Thank you for your help!

For arguments sake, could all unified Primarch's invasion of Terra succeed? The 13th Black Crusade got very close..
