The entitlement in this comment is astonishing by any standards. Truly something to behold. I'm amazed someone lacked the self-awareness to consider posting something like this not only acceptable but even as a sort of call for sympathy. You will not be missed, neither by Costco nor by paying members. I'm skeptical a Costco employee 'literally screamed' at you, that's grounds for getting fired. Per Occam's razor, I think it's more likely you're not used to people confronting you when you're in the wrong and this often gets misunderstood as 'hostility'.

> even as a sort of call for sympathy. No call for sympathy, at all. At the end of the day, it is a box store. Nothing more, nothing less. It really isn't that big of a deal... I just won't go back. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. > I'm skeptical a Costco employee 'literally screamed' at you, that's grounds for getting fired. Fine to be skeptical, but it happened.

  > It really isn't that big of a deal... I just won't go back. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Why bother spending the time making a comment and subsequently replying to other comments. These actions seem to conflict with what you are saying.

    I thought I was sharing an interesting story and different perspective on things. Which did generate a lot of comments and feedback. I don't take the rather negative stuff said here personally and I learn and grow from these things. The feedback, good and bad, I've gotten on HN over the years has helped me a lot at a personal level. It is part of the benefit of speaking up on this site.

      Fair enough. A constantly tuned feedback-loop is certainly worth the effort. All the best.
