All mega corps are shit and run by assholes.
Except Costco. For now at least.
As someone who just tried to sign up for a Costco membership online and couldn't get past the first page of registration, on multiple devices, Costco is kinda shit too, lol.
Oh, Costco is in the stone ages still in a lot of ways, it's pretty unsettling sometimes. But also using tried and true methods and waiting decades to adopt modern tech saves a ton of cash... Which doesn't just benefit the stock holders when you're a company like Costco.
Go in in person on a weekday before 3pm and sign up at the service desk.
Just go into the store. They'll sign you up.
Planning on it lol. Was just mildly annoyed because I needed a product I have to order through their website anyway and I'll probably need to get a month supply somewhere else to hold me over until I can get the membership and finally get it shipped.
