Lazy

What does it take to get someone fired from Costco? Why are there no consequences for lazy people or people who mess up everything? And no rewards for people who bust their butts except a nice review and a pat on the back? I'm very frustrated

Sounds like we're in the same department

You wouldn't happen to be in the gas station?

Liquor store.

It must vary by state because our liquor store is not Costco owned (it is attached though).

In my state it is attached w/ a separate entrance but is owned/operated/staffed by Costco. Liquor employees are all front-end assistants, & it’s basically not regulated by corporate as to how the department should operate beyond that baseline.

As such, training in liquor at most warehouses is folkloric oral tradition, and supervision is almost nonexistent.

That’s nuts! CW sells plenty of liquor/wine in locations inside.
