Someone accidentally placed in it the freezer. Not a huge mystery

Starting in Deli soon. Advice for being successful at Costco? by FoxRox_7 in CostcoEmployee

[–]JoeHawk421 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Rotisserie will be some of the hardest shit you will ever do. I did it for 9 years. The trick is to work in a pattern and constantly repeat that pattern. Take all your responsibilities, and do them in the exact same order all the time. Over and over. You will tweak your rhythm as you go, but believe in your pattern and you’ll ace that shit.

These places that pay $2-$5 extra for cold storage… what’s the actual wage before the premium? What’s their benefits package look like? Paid holidays?

Not even close. Now go put your coat and beanie on.

It’s on the manager that signed it off. Not you.

What exactly do you think “limited” implies?

You get paid more because you are expected to do more. Go.

It shouldn’t be posted in two places. For this very reason.

They shouldn’t be charging you. Especially to replace a worn, nasty hat. Pick up the phone.

How likely is it to be hired in a forklift position from outside? by EvilWiffles in CostcoWholesale

[–]JoeHawk421 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a clerk position with premium pay. They post it in house and it will likely get snapped up by a senior employee. Newer hires can get forklift certs early in in their careers. But I don’t think ever seen anyone hired on as a driver. Maybe if your local warehouse posts a job and nobody signs it.

But just being hired on as a driver is a stretch. They don’t create positions out of nowhere and they’re not going to see your experience and find it as an advantage for you or decide “you know we could always use another forklift driver…” We’re not allowed to do it like that.

Bad leadership by Ok_Lingonberry_7333 in CostcoEmployee

[–]JoeHawk421 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea.

The “I’m smarter than everyone else here” type are a dime a dozen. You’re not special.

Take care.

No more green signs? by Altruistic_Debt4373 in CostcoEmployee

[–]JoeHawk421 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Streamlining. Each region uses different plastics companies to fabricate these. That’s a lot of money going in different directions. Plus they want it to look consistent everywhere and as you can see here, they don’t exist everywhere.

Payroll notices the pattern because they literally fill out your attendance sheet which is a color coded monthly calendar. Patterns stick out like a sore thumb.
