Raldikuk posted:I'm not 100% positive on that; just that tenured hourly employees can reach that high. I'm basing this info off of this BI article. But even then, they say it is for people who have been there decades, but still, if floor workers can make up to that, that puts every single other establishment to shame. There's no way there are costco hourly store workers making $100k+ a year. The article just says "employees" which I'd bet includes managers and all corporate folks (marketing, accounting, probably all non C-suite) and that they "can get up into the equivalent of mid-$40s to the mid-$50s on an hourly basis over time", not that $50/hr is their actual wage.

Moridin920 posted:guaranteed that's not because ethics but rather a corporate branding decision. CVS can't market itself as a healthy friendly drugstore when they sell cigarettes. yeah, I worked at CVS for a few years in college and they are an astonishingly ruthless company that I suspect intentionally employs a racist upper management. they also specifically seek out areas with high concentrations of poverty and prey on them by selling limited groceries at an incredibly high price and cheap alcoholic beer while paying their employees worse than almost any other place I have encountered the one I worked at was built straddling the line between a middle-class neighborhood full of teachers, artists, and urban upwardly-mobile types, a one-street neighborhood with million+ dollar houses occupied by bankers and poo poo, and a huge swathe of section 8 housing. by far the most business it did was selling natural ice and doing food stamp transactions with the residents of the subsidized apartments once we were supposed to give out candy on halloween and my racist manager gave the black kids less and wouldn't give them little toys and straight up did that to my shift managers kids, in front of her. i remember how mad she was but she couldn't do anything because she had just gotten a raise and that had caused her to lose her food stamps so she really needed the job right at that moment gently caress CVS

Yeah I'm sure everyone'll get right on that

Shame Boy posted:Sorry, just got hung up on the "in a fit of human idiocy" bit Yeah fair enough I felt like that might have not come off right. IDK just a fit of like "oh gently caress what do I do my water just broke oh poo poo." Just running on sheer animal instinct and probably not in her right mind (given hormones/pain/etc). I mean it more of like shame on Amazon for putting their employees in such a position.

at first i thought that NK had a bad economy and was completely dark from space because of the inefficiencies of a command economy, but then i learned that the harsh US sanctions against them basically make it impossible for them to participate in any meaningful global trade.
