Pennywise the Frown posted:I absolutely hate that line of thinking. Like when people spill something on the floor or at a restaurant and just leave it there and say "People get paid to clean that up." Yeah, and they get paid to do more important poo poo if you weren't such a child. Customers trying to help is generally super loving annoying and causes more problems than it solves. Just be polite and try not to spill poo poo every where.

Chinatown posted:The foodcourt makes Costco literally no money. It exists to draw members in and makes the whole "Costco experience" better. This isn't necessarily true for all locations or all periods, but yes generally. There's a reason they've been trying to introduce higher profit items. Granted most of those have done extremely poorly because why would you buy a five dollar sandwich when you can get a dog and drink for a third of that. But yeah I've definitely noticed a trend lately of them trying to cut back on the membership services and push bigger profitability. Cyrano4747 posted:Honestly the fact that the food court exists is kinda proof that Costco leadership isn't like normal companies. Most corporations would have seen that as an unnecessary expense and either raised prices to make a profit or just cut it out entirely. Maybe it wasn't but now they're really going whole hog on automation and high ticket items to stop the cash loss

Noslo posted:Pretty sure they're trained to say that to everyone, I got pitched with "our system flagged you, you should upgrade to executive blah blah" a few weeks ago Nope the system is just sort of broken. They're a rewards for getting renewals and upgrades so the warehouses go crazy trying to get as many as possible. The whole computer information aspect of Costco is ancient though so I'm not surprised it's flagging accounts that aren't actually benefitting

This lines up pretty well with what I know. They were planning on bringing in a new salad to replace the ceaser and replacing the chicken bakes with pre made ones ( before the bakes used leftover salad chicken) and replacing the yogurt with ice cream. The ice cream should still be going a head and as far as I know the chicken bakes and churros are coming back but they aren't planned for at least the next six months.

Trastion posted:I want to let the SHAREHOLDERS know that the food court lady today told me to just throw away the 2nd cup when i told her i only needed 1 of them. I was trying to save them money. I wonder what she would have said if I told her I didn't want the buns with the dogs either... Did they already place it on the counter? The foodcourt is a closed system, once the item touches the counter it's contaminated, nothing should go in only out. Everyone and everything inside should be covid free, screened, sanitized and gloves on. Taking back a cup could introduce contamination. You can also just ask for dogs with no buns. Just ask.

binge crotching posted:Is there a special handshake us mere mortals can do to get that bbq chicken pizza? Or the pizza bake, which sounds like a Costco sized hot pocket. The pizza bakes are actually smaller than the chicken bakes. And I highly doubt you can get anyone to make the bbq pizza. All that shits in the deli, and you can't ring it up at the food court. Anyone found out you handed it out to a customer. That employee is getting yelled at. One of my guys did accidentally hand out a Mac and cheese pizza to a guy who ordered a whole pep. So hey maybe one day you'll get lucky.

How old is that location. They have to shut em down and remodel every half decade or decade to fix major equipment, replace flooring, fix any major malfunctions and the like. Most likely it had been scheduled for years and they might've moved up the time table to take advantage of slower food court sales.
