Are hour plus adventure at Costco.........and its a Hoax by the orange "guy" and his enablers.......

As we drove up we noticed that there pallets along the sidewalk in the street, you had to enter where the pallets were and walk along the side walk think of cattle being herded into pen, you were not allowed to go through the double doors in the center of the building or freely like we normally were able to do..............
Then before you could grab your cart, it was wiped down. The carts were not inside the building, they were along the pipe barricades, so that the employee had to wipe the cart down, with the hand grab pointing towards the building, so the attendant could wipe the bar.
Lots and lots of employees performing this function, guiding and wiping
Then when you walked into the store, it was getting packed at 10:45 AM, there is no toilet paper, they did not have Cheerios, and I happened to ask the back room manager when they would be in, she said we have them on the truck and are unloading now, she took off the plastic from the pallet of Cheerios and said here you go, you are allowed only two packages...........no hand wipes, and bottle of water was limited to two packages
After getting our supplies, we got in line, the line was three quarters the length of the building, there were four lines, one on each outside row and two in the middle.
There was manager at the cashier stations directing the customer to the cashiers, that was set up every other station being open.
The food court was shut down where they use to have the benches, they were completely gone...............no social contacting and to also prevent congestion, and two people to check the receipts.
Then we went to the gas station..................no wait......................

So ............................
