I’ve honestly started wondering if this is a real thing in Costco culture.

Even though cart crew is technically the same rank as stockers or FE assistants, I sometimes feel like people look down on cart crew for some reason. The job is physically harder than many inside positions, but it still seems to get less respect socially.

Maybe I’m overthinking it, but I genuinely feel this way sometimes.

Does anyone else notice this at their warehouse?

Or is it completely different at your store?

Above is my original post. The following is what I added:

I am a girl and I feel like girls are definitely malicious, or at least condescending , to other girls who are or were cart crew. Most girls hate or despise this job. So they also show contempt to girls who does this job.

E.g. one employee (Person A) openly said, "shit i heard that they will send everyone (FE assistants) to push cart." In front of me.

E.g. A said to person B who is an FE assistant but not a cart crew, "did they send YOU on cart today? " Person B said, "I won't mind dking it". With an condescending voice.

Maybe guys don't understand girls ' world. Or maybe I am too sensitive?

Well I know that every job is essential etc. I was a cart crew but not anymore. But whenever I look back it's such a painful experience and I almost generated PTSD from that job and i never recovered from it. Not yet.

And in reality I did get negative treatment, but i am not sure if this is because I HAD the experience as a cart crew in the PAST. My coworker (not manager) yelled at me and gave me negative comments about my job in public. And I am not lazy at all but I might think differently as this person does. Also sometimes some other coworkers really love to boss me around. They are better now after I fought against all those behaviors.

I can imagine things, like imagine whatever in my mind. Picturing it in my mind. But no matter I close my eyes, or open my eyes, I cannot visualize anything if this thing is not actually existing. I can imagine an apple but I cannot form that actual picture and see it. E.g. I can imagine a red apple on a white table. But I cannot really close my eyes and see it.

I am pretty sure I am Aphantasia.

But still I am curious: is anyone not even able to imagine in their mind?

I found out that i am a total Aphantasia recently. I can see absolutely black or light brown when i close my eyes depending on if it's bright or not. But I also noticed that I can see vivid pictures in my dreams.

So when sometimes I realized that I was in my dream but I didn't wake up yet, there was a short window that I can see amd remember what I saw. I can even control the dream a little bit and see different things. But it is not totally controllable. Because if I try too hard, I will wake up. But if I relax, I can actually watch a short video or pictures with my eyes closed.

But when I am completely awake, I am hopeless. I want to experience what normal people can experience. But I am completely hopeless now.

I am curious if anyone has the same experience in a half-dream like me?
