☆ One Costco employee at each new store can win $500 in cash if they correctly guess first-day sales

In a company tradition, employees at opening warehouses guess their location's first day sales. AdvertisementNovember was a busy month for Costco, with 10 new locations opening up during the month, and seven of those within a ten-day span. A year later I am on the marketing training team and part of my job is traveling to new warehouse openings. This is my first official new warehouse opening and I am so excited to be part of this opening in Newark, California. I love new warehouse openings because there are items that we do not carry all the time, and some warehouse traditions as well.

What I didn't know was that I'd get burnt out after eight years of my dream job and instead find my lifelong career at Costco. I was the kind of teacher who didn't have many rulesAs long as they were learning, I didn't mind what form it took. If I could've kept going to work, teaching my kids, planning for the next day, and going home, I think I would've been a teacher forever. I didn't plan on working at CostcoWhen I left teaching in 2022, a new Costco was being opened in my town. I figured I'd work there for the summer and give myself time to figure things out.

☆ How to 'quiet quit,' from a former teacher who did it for 2 years so she could enjoy a better life while still getting a paycheck

Maggie Perkins, 30, engaged in "quiet quitting" while working as a teacher beginning in 2018. In 2018, she decided she needed a change and began engaging in what's recently become known as "quiet quitting." Perkins prefers the term "quiet working," however, because many teachers genuinely engage in their jobs and don't want to quit. She believes the term "teacher shortage" is a misnomer: It's a "teacher exodus." If you have a story to tell about "quiet quitting" reach out to this reporter at jzinkula@insider.com.

☆ Bernie Sanders says teachers should be paid at least $60,000 — and thinks that money should come from higher taxes on the wealthy
  + stars: | 2023-02-15 | by ( Juliana Kaplan | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
Bernie Sanders wants teachers to make a minimum of $60,000, and to pay for it with taxes on wealthy estates. Sanders' proposal to address that is higher pay, offset with changes to the estate tax. But one of the primary reasons is the pathetically low pay teachers receive. Sanders' plan to pay for higher teacher salaries hinges on the estate tax, which he wants to make both broader and higher. But Sanders thinks it's necessary to deal with the state of teacher pay, noting that childcare workers fare even worse, making less than doggy daycare workers.

☆ Some older workers have fond memories of sleeping at the office, but the Elon Musk-style 84-hour workweek is falling flat with younger Americans
  + stars: | 2022-11-20 | by ( Jacob Zinkula | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
Some Twitter employees are working 80-hour weeks and sleeping at the office. Some older workers have fond memories of sleeping at work, but younger Americans aren't on board. Americans are divided on what to make of this, and a workplace-culture expert believes the schism reveals a generational divide. But younger workers are unlikely to buy in, said the best-selling author and workplace well-being expert Jennifer Moss. While older generations worked through the dot-com craze and the rise of Silicon Valley hustle culture, younger workers are changing attitudes around how far you need to go for your job.
