Costco Wholesale Member Services
Hi team, just wrapping up the notes from the weekly sync. The main focus was on streamlining the inventory checklist for the upcoming quarter. John from logistics suggested we adjust the thresholds for seasonal items, especially the patio furniture and grilling supplies. He thinks we should bring in the summer stock about two weeks earlier than last year based on the early warm weather patterns. Sarah from member services mentioned that the feedback forms from last month have been processed and the summary report is attached to this memo. The most common note was about the checkout line speed during weekend peak hours. We’re looking into a few solutions, maybe an additional express lane for baskets under ten items. On a different note, I tried that new recipe for the lemon herb roasted chicken last night. It was quite good, very simple. Just lemon zest, rosemary, thyme, garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Rub it all over the chicken and roast at 425 for about an hour. The skin gets really crispy. Served it with some roasted potatoes and asparagus. Everyone liked it. Might be a good one for the next family dinner. Speaking of which, we need to finalize the date for that. I was thinking the third weekend of the month. Let me know what works. Back to work topics, the regional manager visit is confirmed for the 18th. The agenda is mostly set, we’ll review the floor plan updates and the new digital signage rollout. The IT department confirmed the software update will happen overnight on the 15th, so systems should be running normally by opening on the 16th. Please remind your teams to log out fully at the end of their shift on the 15th. Also, a reminder about the community donation drive. The collection bins are at the rear entrance. We’re focusing on non-perishable food items and school supplies this time. The partnership with the local food bank is going well. They’ll pick up the donations on the last Friday of the month. I’ve been reading a bit about container gardening lately. Thinking of setting up a few pots on the balcony. Tomatoes and herbs mostly, maybe some peppers. It seems manageable. You just need good soil, consistent watering, and plenty of sun. Our balcony gets afternoon sun which should be sufficient. Need to get some pots and seeds this weekend. Anyway, that’s all for now. Please review the attached documents before our next meeting. We can discuss any questions then. The goal is to have the summer plan finalized by the end of next week. Let’s all try to keep the email chains concise and use the project management tool for task updates. It helps keep everything in one place. Hope everyone has a productive week. Don’t forget to submit your time-off requests for the summer if you haven’t already. The calendar is filling up fast. Cheers.
