In 2022, 31-year-old Maggie Perkins quit her eight-year teaching job and got a job at Costco. She doesn’t regret the decision, and she’s never been happier. Here’s a look at a day in the life working at Costco.
You do not get paid for summer breaks. It’s the same as if you took an unpaid vacation every summer, but put some money in a bank account every month to cash out for it.
There are definitely some benefits but when holiday prices increase by 4x the breaks become harder to utilise. Pension is great, but when the negatives outway the positives…
Seriously they could have a great path to enshitification that people want to pretend could never happen. But they have so far made a great place where people want to come to and spend money at but all it takes is a change to caring a little more about the quarterly profit margin and Costco could become hell.
But sure corporate retail jobs will fix everything for all Americans.
Well, why do I feel there is something about summer breaks. Dont teachers get summer breaks?
Also state pension - am I wring that there is a pension included? And with Costco there is no pension.

Well, the thing is Costco might have a nice CEO now, but if that changes all bets are off

We need real fixes and regulations.
