    Yeah, some of the upper echelon even got chewed out and threatened to never raise the price of a hot dog. While I see them as a company that treats their employees well, and customers fairly, I do see the C-suite and their teams generally as capable of changing all that to squeeze out more money.

    That said, time will tell; if they don’t pull a starbucks and start closing down businesses, then they aren’t anti-union. Then again, unlike Starbucks, Costco typically buys the land and builds massive warehouses… that cant normally be said for Starbucks’s investment in their stores; they typically rent in a shopping center.
