I know someone who goes to HD and routinely hunts down someone wearing the orange apron and asks them the silliest, dumbest, most assanine questions, then continues to drill them on how to do it, what tools are needed and such. <br /><br />Their reason for doing it? "I want to see if they know what they are talking about." Thanks for making me look like a jackass just for standing next to them.One Bad Pixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04139395145674594659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-68039322915956400542013-01-31T07:56:46.872-05:002013-01-31T07:56:46.872-05:00That's pretty much my experience at home depot...That's pretty much my experience at home depot over the last few years. <br /><br />Mitt Romney works a part-time shift at the one closest to me.

I didn't notice anyone named Neil, or any alarms going off, but you wouldn't BELIEVE all the blank stares we got from employees who didn't have a clue what we were talking about.Susan Flett Swiderskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425315552148200073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-38093994037431334582013-01-30T22:01:04.753-05:002013-01-30T22:01:04.753-05:00Fun post and I love that last line.

Half cheese, and the other half sausage, bacon, and Canadian bacon. The guy said, "You don't want cheese on the meat half?"<br /><br />When we got there to pick it up, they had covered the whole thing with meat. So in order to pacify me, they offered a free medium cheese pizza. Sell your stock in Domino's. <br /><br />Let the record show that the pizza-maker order-taker was NOT the guy who was riding a broom around the back like a stick pony. Somebody needs to tell those guys that the whole front wall of glass is see-through.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-64520196618751216042013-01-30T15:35:58.133-05:002013-01-30T15:35:58.133-05:00Love the part: "I am sure the bells do go off...Love the part: "I am sure the bells do go off all the time, especially when creepy Neil is on the job, but I doubt very much they are broken."<br />LOVE IT!!!!<br />Thanks for the laughBad Word Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05946586696660086018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-40187606431741021642013-01-30T15:17:09.621-05:002013-01-30T15:17:09.621-05:00I believe there are Neils in more kinds of busines...I believe there are Neils in more kinds of businesses than you can imagine.

Sadly this "I don't give a damn" attitude is so very common among employees anymore, they are paycheck focused and feel no sense of loyalty to their employer. One only has to wonder how much money Creey Neil cost Home Depot as those bells continued to go off, and why did a supervisor never bother to check on it or see if the security system needed repair? The telling part is when you returned and then had to convince him he had missed the item, or "the machine" did! :-)Josie Two Shoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18388032819905416258noreply@blogger.com
