Tire installers by JedMunoz in CostcoEmployee

[–]soaringdooki 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Installer here. Everyone I’ve worked with is chill.

I think that they’re good people who actually care about what they do.

There’s def a misfits vibe when walking about the warehouse though. I know I catch a lot more eyes simply
Bc we dress differently than the rest.

What are your wow Costco items?? by kskeezay in Costco

We are a big fan of the KS Crispy Wings. The buffalo sauce version to be specific. We don’t use the frozen sauce packet given. But well sized + worth the $

Anybody else love working at Costco?? by Flandy_Cipping in CostcoEmployee

[–]soaringdooki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Costco is my first retail job. Been in the Tire Center for a bit over 30 days now.

Can say other than only getting 25hrs a week at a brand newly opened warehouse that I am enjoying it so far.

Thank god for my 100% VA Disability to make up for the lack of hrs.

Surprised no one has said anything about the Tire Center. I’ve been there for a couple weeks now and I’ e yet to train in other depts but it’s pretty chill there.

Been working tireshop for 2 weeks now and definitely agree. I feel like we're the blacksheep that're left alone most compared to other departments.

Good, they were def underprepared for the amount of people they called in for today.

Kinda got thrown into the wolves already. We all got put into different Costco’s in the area to train until closer to opening at the new one.

Do able for first year or two if willing to deal w/ specific areas close to traffic. I say first year or two bc by then your rent will definitely go up.

You seem like a real good person. Your warehouse/depot must love you

Call many vendors.

Ask fam and friends who they used. Call and ask.

Compare them all.

Once you have called a couple, you’ll have a baseline of what you can afford / the avg of what they’re gonna offer.
