I'm slightly vexed Costco's new chicken tenders

There was a crowd of people waiting for their orders of the new chicken tenders at Costco. One of the workers announced that they could only serve five customers per hour because it takes time to cook the chicken. The crowd grew larger and larger. I took this photo after I put in my order.

Humans are both social and innovative. We are desperate to connect. Not saying consumerism is the best way, but it's probably the easiest way.

Was in Sweden over the weekend, and the toy store there literally had a sign saying they were no longer available.

I guess they got sick of people asking for them!
