Until they're not.
Everything is cool right now for them because they got good management. But at some point, some MBA grad gets elected to lead and drain Costco out of all good will.
Same with Steam.
Yeah I'm scared of what will happen to steam when Gabe retires. I hope he's hand picked a really solid successor
Oh yeah, that's a big one. I hope they're learning some theory so they are able to do the right restructuring. A hand picked leader could work, transferring ownership to Valve's employees and reforming it as a worker co-op along with that would be more resilient.
"If the good thing is bad then it's bad"
Wow so insightful.
If you care about workers rights you should focus on the corporations that are suppressing them instead of making concessions.
This shifting attention onto fucking Costco is lazy propaganda, but i guess it works on you.
Costco is stealing the surplus labor value from every worker in the supply chain.
Check out Mondragon when you have the chance.
There's no attention shift. Costco has been in active negotiation with their unionized employees for a few months now and we've been paying attention to that. Workers are about to strike because Costco hasn't been forthcoming. An alternative way to see this is Costco shifting attention away from the strike and bolstering its image as propaganda that weakens the union's hand. Are you sure you're looking out for workers here and not (inadvertently) Costco's leadership?
