  • Ya that’s why I wrote a little above min. I had a buddy that pushed buggies at costco in high school and he was usually a buck or 2 above min. The meat slicers easily make $20+ because they have to work with high cost products but for something low skill like shredding chicken, they can give some 16 year old a couple forks and tell them not to hurt themselves


  • The costcos I’ve been to always had windowed processing areas right by the deli, you can watch the gnomes slicing up the steaks, putting together salads, etc. I’ve never personally seen them pull the chicken because these bags weren’t available when I used to go but I don’t think it would be crazy to think they pay some kids a little above minimum wage to shred some chicken


  • This is one of those convenience/made for people with limited dexterity kinda things on top of what one would guess is them using the unsold rotisserie chickens. If you have the time and body then absolutely buy the whole bird to pull it yourself.

    I don’t have a costco in my city anymore but the walmarts around me throw their rotisserie chickens on 50% off after 7 so I can usually get one for $4. I quarter them right when I get home, freeze the carcass for broth and go to town on a dark quarter while it’s fresh. One of the breasts usually end up being pulled or sliced and frozen.
