Yeah I think Costco said something like “I’m disappointed they felt like they needed a union” in response to a shop organizing which in 2024 is good enough for me to buy a membership.
A co-op is even better if you can find one that isn’t too bougie. They exist in places you might expect like Vermont and California, but also places like Wisconsin.

This is bad! I don’t know the first thing about fuck about Costco but this is bad! You always need a union, your material interests don’t align and you are stronger when you organize!
Yeah every company says that when their workers try to unionize
It’s along the same lines of “we’re all family here”
“You don’t need a union, you can always come talk about your grievances to one of our friendly managers :)”
Just another mechanism to veil the class antagonism (don’t want workers getting any ideas about how they’re on one side and their boss is on another side)

Yes, correct, but in 2024 in America, this is as pro-union as any grocer is, aside from co-ops.
