I spend a lot of money at Home Depot. I'm not happy that most stuff there comes from China, but I buy it anyway. What choice do I have. I noticed something really disturbing last night:

I witnessed Home Depot Hiring off-duty cops to watch over customers using the self checkouts. (In bad neighborhoods, anyway) So they would rather pay a cop who already has a day job $25-30 per hour to "protect" their assets instead of hiring two cashiers from that bad neighborhood who really need the job and providing full service checkout. How stupid is that? No wonder there are so many people looking for work.

I posted this on their facebook page and it was removed. I posted it again, and it disappeared again very quickly. I'm pissed that Facebook allows that, It seems that corporate customers get to use it for propaganda, but not allow their customers to post their issues. That is really sad. So much for free speech.

I'm going to Lowes exclusively from now on. People need jobs. That cop needs to live within his means. Sorry Home Depot. You cannot seem to stock fences and fence hardware that works together anyway.

/Rant off.
