Costco Employees Claim They're Being 'Bullied' & 'Abused' Over The Store's New Policy
Costco Employees Claim They're Being 'Bullied' & 'Abused' Over The Store's New Policyhttps://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/costco-employees-claim-they-re-being-bullied-abused-over-the-store-s-new-policy/ar-AA1pkBd2
As frustrating as the new policy has been for some shoppers, it turns out that Costco workers hate the mandatory card scanning, too. Or at least, they hate they way it's making some shoppers behave.
...
"A bunch of you are mad. Now, imagine being the low level employee at the door that is instructed to enforce those policies. Imagine the abuse that YOU, the public, has subjected them to. Calling them slurs. Getting in their faces. Swearing at them. Threatening them. Assaulting them. Spitting on them. Complaining to them," they wrote online.
"That smiling face at the door is a low level employee trying to do their job. They don't make policies. They have NO influence," the worker continued.
"Yet they face abuse and mistreatment at the hands of the general public daily. I've seen coworkers reduced to tears, crying because a Member decided that it was OK to take out their frustration (bully) on a woman standing at a scanner. We're just doing our jobs, people. Stop being like this."

(893 posts)other hand, are some of the most entitled pricks you'll ever run across ... if they don't run across you first ... wheeling their own self-important asses through the parking lot.
Gathering the shopping carts is one of the most hazardous tasks there is at Costco.
