After being ordered to stay on his feet or go home, a 71-year-old sample server at Costco has won the right to use a bench at work. When a new company, Club Demonstrations Services (CDS), took charge of food demonstrations at the giant retailer in August, the employees lost a slew of rights, Gourdeau said. "We have beautiful material to work with, nice tables, but they got rid of the benches we had before," he said. "So I took my bench, and I got the hell out of there," he said. While it's a step in the right direction for Gourdeau, he said he hopes his bosses will ease up on his colleagues, as well.
