DanXIII 8 Posted May 4, 2006 Bigger companies like that are always a pain in the ass. If you're looking for summer work check out a video store or something like that. You'll make about the same pay with a lot less bullshat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brinett9 0 Posted May 4, 2006 My coworker had a minor fender bender with another car in a parking lot. He calls his insurance company about it. The lady asks, I kid you not: ....wait for it.... "Who collided first?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BiPolarBear 485 Posted May 4, 2006 The scarey thing is that after Home Depot goes through their hiring process they end up with some goobers for cashiers that are dumb as stumps. Their is one at the local Home Depot here that is unfit to hold any job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Their is one at the local Home Depot here that is unfit to hold any job. The real funny thing is that Blank's book details how they sought to only hire people with experience, established a true customer service organization and made Home Depot great through this plus the size of their stores. Sometime in the 90's this backfired on them, some whiney b!tch cried about only being a cashier and ruined their model in the process. Now they have to hire unqualified people as well....

"Who collided first?" An accident is a near miss. When 2 cars almost collide but don't that's a near hit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

torridjoe 48 Posted May 4, 2006 I was at Hendrickson's Home Plus the other day trying to buy a new disposal, and this b!tch at the cashier wouldn't let me use my sister wife's family discount card! Sure I didn't have it, and my name isn't even Hendrickson, but I GET the discount. They wouldn't even let me call my sister wife! Focking mainstream LDS home stores!

I know you Orgeon types have your own way of doing things, but what is a "sister wife"? Home Depot sucks. I go in there and ask for something like "shaker pegs" and they look at me like I'm speaking Swahili. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
