hi there, i work at costco 10hours a week. i do 4 hours on friday evening and 6.5 hours on a sunday plus the occasion saturday. i have been there for 18months now and i am the best cashier the store have got. I went to the store manager and said to him, that i need a new challenge, i am the best cashier and i meet all the set targets and goals and i want you to set me new targets set new challanges to make the job more intresting. The store manager then said to me "am i flexible and avaliable to work saturdays" i said yes depending on how exciting the challenge is. He then went to the cashiers manager and said something to him, and the the cashier manager came up to me and said am i avaliable on saturdays ? i said "yes" he then said he is looking for a supervisor for weekends and i meet all the conditions. He then said he going to look in to it and get back to me. what are the chances ill get the supervisor job ? or how could i ask him on friday when i go to work ?

I'm sorry, but I don't get the connection between working at Costco AND wanting a challenging job when you only work a couple of days a week. Is there a connection or am I missing something pretty big here - all you've got to do is wait for him to tell you if you get the job! ! !

It looks good to me !
When you get in on Friday, ask if they have made a decision ..
If you are offered the new post you could ask what is the description of the new duties, what training will they provide, what the weekend rates will be (should be 'time and a half' for Saturday and double time for Sunday) and how soon you can expect a pay review / increase ...
If you decide to accept, ask if the Store Manager could announce your promotion to the other staff (eg. on the Notice Board) ... otherwise you will not get respect and every one will expect you to carry on doing all your old work AS WELL as the new stuff

Working as a cashier in Costco - get real, how challenging can it get? Trained monkeys can do it (and would probably do a better job than most of the neanderthals who work there).
How do you know you are the best? or have you just decided this?
It must be great being the best monkey in the room.

Hi
You have done exactly the right thing.
As an employer part of what I do is to notice, promote and reward those that are fine employees
It makes for a better company & working environment.
Of couse I have to deal with the odd very part time young lad that wastes my time & money, and has to be told to go away.
I wsh you all the best, as you seem to be doing a fine job
Bob

Looks to me like you've got it - but make sure if you are not prepared to so the Saturdays, don't tell you will, just to get that promotion - good for you for going out to get what you want - I did the same and I am now exactly where i wanted to be (on a trial period)! its a great feeling
