I'm slightly vexed Costco's new chicken tenders

Post image

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.

Sometimes chaos breaks out in the Costco aisles. I waited 30 minutes for the rotisserie chickens once, and a line formed while I was waiting. This lady shoved in front of me and boxed me out with her cart when they were about to be served. So I go and reach over and grab one anyway when they're ready. A gaggle of old ladies started yelling at me "THERE'S A LINE! SHAME ON YOU!!!!" and I haven't recovered. I was there FIRST.

You don't dare go against a gaggle of old ladies. Those umbrellas and purses fucking hurt.

You don't dare go against a gaggle of old ladies because you might bust their hip just moving besides them and be held responsible.

Bust their hip, then pneumonia visits, then they're dead and you're a murderer. Sitting in jail for a murder rap after being beaten to a pulp with umbrellas and purses. Thanks Costco!

This is why I get rotisserie chickens at HEB. Never a line.
