The opposite of Walmart during Thanksgiving holiday

Costco Will Be Closed On Thanksgiving Because Employees Deserve The Opportunity To Be With Family ThinkProgress

 

[Blackrook]

The Democrats will trumpet this tune until Wal-Mart caves and starts giving generously to Democrat politicians.

 

[Sunni Man]

Why are the lefty loons always hating on Walmart?? .....

 

[Katzndogz]

Think Progress. Enough said.

Aaaaannnd CUE the fascist-apologist boycott coming to a Costco near you in five.... four... three....

Costco has a well-established and well-deserved rep for treating their employees as valuable assets rather than faceless drones to be minimally paid and replaced as needed. Therein lies the difference.

 

[Blackrook]

It's a shake down. Costco has obviously paid the Democrats the protection money they demand. Wal-Mart hasn't.

 

[Blackrook]

Dot Com, Pogo, you do realize you are puppets of the corrupt unions and sleezy Democrat politicians who work your strings?

And Costco pays a decent wage and to my knowledge does not support abortion.

Unlike Walmart, who starts their xmas grab-a-thon on Thursday afternoon.

WRONG, Costco gives money to Planned Parenthood:

2nd Vote The Conservative Way to Shop

Thanks for starting this informative thread. My boycott of Costco begins today. I will spread the word to all my Christian and conservative friends.

I think it is a good thing if Costco is giving its employees paid day off on Thanksgiving. However, if the employees are not getting paid then I think they should have an option of working or not working on the holidays.

 

[Blackrook]

Costco employees are wage employees so no, they don't get paid on Thanksgiving if they don't work.

Wal-Mart employees, on the other hand, will be paid double-time because Thanksgiving is a national holiday.

 

[norwegen]

I'm glad Wal-Mart's open tomorrow. I may need to get some more sweet potatoes.

 

[Blackrook]

If I was making minimum wage, would I prefer an unpaid holiday or 8 hours of double pay? I think I would prefer the latter, but that's just me.

Costco. The way business should be done.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Costco requires you pay a membership, and you have to pay by cash or check. NO CARDS !

Some people need to work and some don't care what day it is.

so costco won't be paying their workers any holiday pay but wal-mart will.

wow, how cool is that of wal-mart!?

 

[Dot Com]

They "need to work" because companies like Wally World have helped to keep wages stagnant or even to fall because of the "stuff" they import & their pricing policy.

BTW- not all of them need to work & are willing to give up some fiat $$$ in order to spend time w/ loved ones.
