And it’s why I admire the hell out of the Costco executives. They know they’re taking a little less by paying their employees better in benefits and pay but they don’t mind because they know they’ve created a happy place to work and shop at. I really wish more companies would look at what Costco has done and realize you can not only be profitable by treating your employees like more than chattel but you’re also creating a place where they’ll love to work. Being good to your employees is good for business. For fuck sake, Waltons and Schiffs of the world, even Henry Ford knew that and he was a raging lunatic.

Ford knew that if he paid his employees enough to buy the cars they were making, he’d sell more cars. That’s a concept that is entirely lost on the Waltons.
