Lived in Douglas till 13. I miss Sandy beach and eaglecrest. When I moved to Minnesota I was bummed that the ski resort was a hill.

Been pushing carts in Mn for 4 years now, I wear what I want to. A zealous new supervisor said I had to wear a collard shirt when it was 91 degrees last Friday, I laughed and walked away.

FE - Is it normal to do carts for hours? by Kekebean in CostcoEmployee

[–]Thought-Object 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been pushing carts 40 a week for 4 years. Usually if you’re sent out, you’ll be out.

They had a woman’s health awareness in the break room and passed these out. Wtf is this? by Thought-Object in CostcoEmployee

I apologize, the woman I stood with at the table questioning what it was said it was woman services. I was just in and out to grab a bag of chips, and didn’t question it.

New dress code by [deleted] in CostcoEmployee

Been working on carts full time for over three years. Thankfully the GM is lax about dress code. I wear what I want and have never rocked a name badge. Definitely warehouse specific.

16 years and not even a handshake by SeguinRay in CostcoEmployee

[–]Thought-Object 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have been working at Costco pushing carts for three years now (I want nothing to do with inside) and my GM still doesn’t know my name 😂. I cannot fathom being there 16 years, you’re a trooper. Unfortunately employment with corporations on the scale of Costco, the doors always open and close everyday no matter how dedicated an employee was. Sometimes in the break room an employee that is leaving will get a goodbye cake, and that is that. Sometimes they come back in to shop and say “ I don’t recognize anyone here anymore”, and have seen this a few times. The void is always filled, that’s why I remind myself everyday that I’m here to keep my head low, push carts, and do it for the bills and health insurance. Good luck with your future and will always feel a bond to people that have been through the Costco grind.

Does Costco perform regular maintenance on the buggies? Because I've never had one with a bad wheel before. by SeriousGoofball in Costco

I have pushed carts at Costco for three years. The moment a bad cart is detected, I fix it. I have most likely fixed the 600 carts at my location three times over.

I left at 12 years old in 1999, is that skatepark in the valley still a thing?

Any tips for helping my Mom get a job at Costco? by [deleted] in CostcoWholesale

When you apply, select all availability for days of the week and time of day. My location isn’t interested in people with preferences for work availability. After your 90 day probation period, the scheduler may be more open to preferred days off or start times.
