The Forking Truth is that It seems like my local Costco (a paid membership grocery/warehouse) in Phoenix Arizona doesn’t care about the pandemic anymore. Don’t misunderstand what I am saying. I am NOT talking about shopping at Fry’s or Safeway or any of the other local supermarkets. Shopping at regular places is different because they don’t pay people to stand at the entrance to check for masks. I am only taking about my visit to Costco because they are different. They are a paid membership grocery/warehouse that PAYS people to check for membership and for entering the store wearing masks. Last week many people entered my local Costco and didn’t wear masks and some people wore masks improperly. Costco used to have the highest standards. They’ve installed plexiglass walls between the cashiers and customers.

They used to sanitize the shopping carts. They used to only let in a certain amount of people at a time.

They used to have 6 foot spaces marked on the floors. Costco pays employees to check people entering for membership cards and also for wearing masks.

It seem like things have changed. I saw all this on my last shopping visit last week. I tried to block out part of the customers faces for privacy.

The Forking Truth is that It seems like my local Costco stopped caring about the coronavirus pandemic. They pay people out of our membership dues for people at the door to screen for mask. They can’t control the people who don’t care about using their mask correctly but they should control the amount of people they let in that don’t wear masks. They can and help stop the spread and should. I also note that I don’t know if all Costco locations are similar. I am only talking about my local Costco in North Phoenix AZ.

Everything is subject to change and we hope it does change for the better.
