Correct. No food court at the business centers here in Ontario as well.

I can't bring myself to burst through the entrance any earlier than 8:29pm.
Then shop the aisles literally until they close each one.
I don't move until somebody speaks "sir. we're closing." kindly but firmly in my ear.

The guys already have the line cleaned up and shit packed away only to yell a big fuck you to the server ringing that damn order in.

I was assistant supervisor and would announce over head 30 mins before closing. Then I would sweep the entire store to tell people directly that we're closing soon. Anyone who didn't get the damn message I would stay in their line of sight until they got tired of me. It was usually the most effective way to tell them to go the fuck away. We just want to go home lol.

I’d like to work the refund desk for a day and chew people out and deny their refunds for shit like a 3/4 eaten pumpkin pie “it tastes funny”
Why is costco in Canada so busy compared to the US? I’ve been to costco in asian heavy areas (San Jose, Irvine) and it’s nowhere as busy as Richmond.

all the bitches i see at the refund counter look like they are dead on the inside. Literally have worse PTSD than some guys who went to actual combat.
The dispondent attitude, the 10000 mile stare, the faceless expressions... my god what have i done to these people.. Oh im returning this 1 bottle of watermelon juice, i drank the other 5 because.... reasons.

Perhaps the density in Richmond makes it super busy. Then again, my experience with any Lower Mainland Costco is all the same - busy, packed, and a landmine in itself.

at least those who are stocking shelves or doing cash don't have to really talk to people much.
doing returns means you have to listen to a bunch of BS all day, and the line literally never ends.

i dun know, i only go to the one downtown and the one in richmond... and only during work hours because fuck you, pay me.
The one in richmond is staffed by flips and a few east indian women. they all seem ravaged by the horde of cheap chinese that return shit nonsensically every day. Like when i brought back my super heavy gaming PC, they asked me what was wrong with it, i said it was noisy, and they were like uhhhhh okay. then they had to lift this beast out of the box, and go through and check all the serial numbers to make sure i didnt swap the 5080 for a 2080. My god, what a bullshit job. That comp was at least 20+ lbs, and if they drop it, BYE BYE 5k PC. Im sure i added to that woman's suicide "reasons" list that day.

It's awful here, it takes 10-15 minutes of wading through people to get to the milk section, it's a crying outrage.
Not even on the worst day at the worst time were the california Costcos like this.
Must the catchment areas are too large.
At least there's a new T&T going up at Bayview & Sheppard!!! Yay!
