  When I was at Costco, for Member Service Week they literally gave us a rock, like from the gravel outside the office, with the note: “You rock!”

    Your resignation letter should have just said “Now I’m about to roll”

    I would rather not get anything than get a rock for recognizing my efforts.

    That sucks. Costco is usually decent to their employees. Feel free to make and shame the dumbass who thought that was a good idea.

    You could always light the boss’ garbage can on fire with a message saying “You’re on fire!”

      That may be true for warehouse employees, but the corporate offices are a toxic mess of shitty culture and dated ideas. I’ve never seen a tech department bleed so much underpaid talent to Amazon.

      When I quit because they tried to force me back into the office mid-pandemic (August 2020) I had multiple offers for fully remote positions with twice the salary within a few weeks.

      But yeah, if you are a cashier at a warehouse or whatever I hear it’s a solid gig.

  I don’t know man, my sister in law just got made redundant while she and her family were on holiday. They rang her out of the blue while she was abroad to tell her. Who the fuck thinks that’s a good idea?! “Oh hey, you have no job now and just 4 weeks severance. But lemme ruin the last holiday you be able to afford for a long while by telling you now when there absolutely nothing you can do but worry about it”. Someone made that decision instead of waiting just 48 hours. Fuckers.

    Isn’t it better she know as soon as the decision is made?
