When employees are happy, they are your very best ambassadors.

We've always been in favor of improved wages for workers. When you have a strong middle class, they want to buy more stuff at Costco.

You destroy the initiative of the working people if they don't feel they have a fighting chance to be a part of the American Dream.

I say at our management conferences that the amount Wal-Mart grows in just one year is the equivalent of Costco's size.

When employees are happy, they are your very best ambassadors.

It is improper for one person to take credit when it takes so many people to build a successful organization. When you try to be top dong, you don't create loyalty. It you can't give credit (and take blame), you will drown in you inability to inspire.

When you hire good people, and you provide good jobs and good wages and a career, good things are going to happen.
