Stupid Pet Peeves

[colton]

I HATED Costco the first five times or so I went. Now I get it.
I go there for electronics, meats (steaks), and select items from deli when entertaining.

It's pretty much the only place I will buy steaks.

Been there about 3 times.

What a stupid store. I'm not gonna pay to be a member of a store. I'd say it's a dumb management model. But I guess it works.

Dumb management model? Please explain.





I <3 Costco.

Do yall not have butcher shops in SLC?

Electric car charging stations that take up normal parking spots in the very front of busy places. I park in them every time I see one, hoping some Nissian Leaf owner is waiting around for me to pop out of the place so he can give me an ear full.

You are probably the fat person who parks in marked handicap spots too.

And yet I bet no Nissan Leaf owner has ever turned up.

Not really.

Butcher shops here are inside super markets.

When someone needs help they pull the pimple faced kid off bagging duty and have him grab you your cuts of meat.

There have been several times I go up to the meat case and ask for something and they irritatedly point me towards the pre-packaged meat on the shelves. Then I have to tell them I saw their 1/2" thick steaks, I want 1 1/2" thick steaks. There are times when they can't do that for me.

There has to be at least one butcher in SLC, it's impossible that there isn't. There are butchers in towns of 10,000 people.

And yes, through a simple google search, there are plenty of butcher/meat shops in SLC.

Not that I've ever seen. (For what it's worth I live in Utah county, not SLC)

Yep, the thickness of the steak is one of the main reasons I use Costco for steaks. Price is also good, of course. But grocery store steaks are ridiculously thin.

Harmon's is pretty good.

I live right next to a Harmons, and although the meat quality might be good they don't cut their steaks nearly thick enough. And it's much pricier than Costco.
