In 2022, 31-year-old Maggie Perkins quit her eight-year teaching job and got a job at Costco. She doesn’t regret the decision, and she’s never been happier. Here’s a look at a day in the life working at Costco.

A failed society of fools. Where there is a shortage of educators and doctors because the capitalist model is directed towards meaningless individualism.

In this case it’s probably because teachers are underpaid. Costco happens to be one of the few known for treating their employees well and going beyond legal requirements.

That in any case, and not just that. Whether or not teachers or doctors get payed, ,basically we needs them, or we’re back in the stone age. While Cosco’s employee is not worth a damn for progress.
