Costco - It’s gotta be a VIN or RDP is slipping.

[HNL2LHC]

Just saw this story about Al Sharpton pushing Costco because they are holding their position on DEI. It has been two days and I had not heard about this until now. If it is not a Vin RDP is slipping.

Al Sharpton leads ‘buy in’ at Harlem Costco to support their DEI policies

Rev. Al Sharpton hosted a rally in-front of a Costco in Harlem to support the wholesaler's decision to standby their diversity, equity, and inclusion policies.

I knew there was a reason I didn't shop at Costco.

I can't post everything.....lol

You know statements like this is not going to help to establish the DILLIGAF forum section. Didn’t realize your plan until @LuckyStrike exposed your plan to take over the lounge.

Someone on their board is pushing this, Al Sharpton as a brand is toxic.
Hope they get a taste of Bud Light and Disney.

19 state AG’s are warning Costco to stop.
Best quote I saw = Racial discrimination is both immoral and illegal. Race-based employment hiring violates state and federal law.

i have been saying that since 46 signed these BS DEI EO’s.

If this was said in Sept, you would of been hung out to dry.

I don't know if they push the hard dei bullshit like the government. If you working at Costco you are busting ass all day. However, it‘s just nice to hear big companies denouncing DEI.

My experience is the workers are happy, hard working and knowledgable...their light bulbs are on. Contrast that with the unhirable lepers working at Walmart.

They do.
I was being recruited for a position. Made it to the BOD interview.
Feedback I received, “We decided to go in another direction.”
The executive search firm I was working with had a friend in HR. They got the real reason. “BOD wanted a minority candidate to meet DEI objectives, even if that candidate was not as experienced.”

As a mid 40 white guy, I got the opinion, I was only interviewed so they could say they looked at other candidates.
Told my wife, I felt like a minority interviewing for a head coaching job in the NFL. Only got the interview so someone could check a box.

Was it him or Jesse Jackson yelling "Gracious adios" at some immigration rally back in the 90's?

 

[sprintcvx]

Fake news! Everyone knows you need ID to get into Costco.

 

[oldschool]

Costco has been a customer of mine for almost 30 years, DEI hiring might be a better way for them to go. In the time I’ve been involved with them they have hired some legitimate retards in key positions and it had nothing to do with DEI. Upper management there is unbelievably political.

Friend's kid works for Indeed, the hiring and placement company.
He basically said, forget-it if you are a white straight male. Reverse racism is their corporate culture, so it seems.

 

[Singleton]

Thats fucked

Have been on the receiving end of that message twice in my career.
At one place, the CFO called me 6 months later asking if I was still interested.
Person he originally picked was terminated. I knew who they hired and knew it was not going to work out. Person did not have experience dealing with the audit committee, etc.

I told the CFO = You had an opportunity to hire me and passed. You fired who you hand picked after 6 months. Sorry, but I am no longer interested in working with you. The Audit Committee chair (old CFO I worked for), even called and tried to convince me. He knew I was not going to entertain the idea. He called again after the CFO was terminated, but I was already in a new job and happy.

While we are hoping and dreaming Costco joins the long list of businesses dumping DEI, I would like to see Costco go back to membership that requires proof of employment.

Neither are likely to happen, with mine firmly on the “never going to happen” list.

I just got back. They had plenty in stock. Stupid Stator Brothers didn't have any.

We were at Costco today in AZ and saw a lady with an entire flat cart stacked with eggs…probably 3 feet high.

Restaurant maybe?

I'm glad I didn't see anything like that here.

Fuckheads like Sharpton live forever.

Nobody wants that irrelevant old bastard in their corner..

All that ass hole does is try to promote unrest while walking with a 200 year old crutch.

From the looks of him he's on borrowed time and times about up.. Good riddance@

Yep I read an article said that's going to be back in stores by this summer

Costco confirms switch of food court sodas from Pepsi to Coca-Cola

Costco announced that it will switch from Pepsi to Coca-Cola products at its food courts "this summer" at an annual shareholder meeting Thursday.

They need to bring back the combo pizza

 

[nameisbond]

I decided not to renew my Costco membership. I also don't drink coke or Pepsi. DEI, well that kills me being a customer. The grocery store I shop at in store brand pop is good enough.
