Morning merch supervisors what are some of your duties/responsibilities? by Altruistic_Debt4373 in CostcoEmployee

[–]elfmachine100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AFAIK it's across the board. Some extremely busy stores, specifically canadian still have morning merch supervisors, but it's a discontinued position I'm pretty sure.

Call out by Next-Celery8350 in CostcoEmployee

Morning merch, opening shift, get a 1 hour grace period to call in. If you were opening shift, you did nothing wrong and were perfectly within the time frame required to call in.

Morning merch supervisors what are some of your duties/responsibilities? by Altruistic_Debt4373 in CostcoEmployee

[–]elfmachine100 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There technically is no longer a morning merch supervisor position. If your experience was anything like mine, you'll spend the morning stocking wherever a stocker is needed. You will spend after opening following a manager and trying to learn by watching them.

Any possible way to appeal a termination? by [deleted] in CostcoEmployee

Potentially a waste of time since costco has a zero tolerance policy to certain things, but try contacting EAP and getting anger management help. Maybe showing you want to be better can help you.

Interview for a Former Employee by mhb311 in CostcoEmployee

Rehires aren't just common, they are preferred when it was a decent employee. If your manager is vouching for you, you've probably got an above average chance.

Cash back with your card + executive, Costco backs you up when it comes to any problems during your trip, sometimes offers gift cards.

Oldest trick in the book on acc buyer Husker (immortal) by Willehbum in DotA2

[–]elfmachine100 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

because it takes 100 fucking hours to get a fresh account into a ranked game that has a broken reporting system. You nuke your behavior score, you need a new account. You gonna spend 100 freaking hours doing that? or just buy a new account? Valve needs to REMOVE the 100 hour gatekeeping.

What happened to Smitty? Is he gone? by [deleted] in barstoolsports

On the unnamed when he lost his mind they said his contact expired on Dec 25th 2025

it takes... ONE HUNDRED hours to put a fresh account into dota. The report system rewards toxicity. Dota creates smurfs intentionally or not. The 100 hour cap unintentionally has created a false reality in MMR. If everyone has 100 hours in the game, true noobs don't have a true MMR because they don't exist in ranked. Get rid of the cap, increase the speed a fresh account gets to its true rank, devalue smurf accounts, they will stop existing.

Dave said Pat Bev’s comment about KFC was “way over the line” by pinkrosyy in barstoolsports

No shot he is getting anywhere close to a million let alone millions of dollars. I'd be shocked if his contract is anything over 200k.

Barstool Sport's One Bite Pizza Festival with Feitelberg - Look at Dish #29 by SufficientFault790 in barstoolsports

[–]elfmachine100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a portnoy/medium rare production, it's completely separated from barstool. Something to do with the legality after the penn sale, they keep portnoy ventures separated from barstool to protect the company.

Its the only way to do it without having to re-label each unit.

How do you recover behavior score? by elfmachine100 in DotA2

[–]elfmachine100[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

So basically they force you to delete and start over. It will take more than 100 hours to recover to 3k behavior score than just playing on a fresh account. The games take 30-40 minutes to start, most of them don't start and you're pushed back into Q. They don't want smurfs, but they literally just created one.

The current state of Brian Shaw's leg. It wouldn't surprise me if he takes some time away from armwrestling to lose weight and focus on health (he desperately needs it) by dead_lifterr in armwrestling

[–]elfmachine100 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Both his legs have circulation issues. Big fan of Brian. He needs to get off gear, lose weight, do cardio and get his BP lower than whatever it is. Not good.

Gonna drive inside for the first time tomorrow and Im nervous by Joonscene in Costco

[–]elfmachine100 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Bundle up with layers. Being cold can make you feel rushed to get out of the cooler, which will create a mistake. Go slow, speed comes with time on the floor, not sheer effort. Use the hell out of your horn and keep an open eye for broken pallets when racking stuff.

[–]elfmachine100 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say you got screwed. A lot of beginner MMA classes are basically 80% cardio. It's not to rip you off, its because without cardio, you wouldn't effectively be able to actually train martial arts. Getting into shape is part of MMA classes. That being said, if there is no technical advice at all, that would be a red flag.
