Stop in for a cup of coffee

Unfortunately welcome to 21st century America. I stopped shopping at Home Depot, Lowe’s etc . Local building supply store that’s a mom and pop that has been in business forever not only has better service, but their prices are competitive enough to stay in business. Sometimes they’re a tad higher, sometimes they’re lower, depends on the item.

And I’m not the only one that feels that way cause they are always packed. Home Depot, never more than 2-3 people in line ever

I have more or less lost it with home depot too. They do not have a single cashier anymore, so they have hired me to do their job. I went in there a couple of weeks ago, greeted myself, and led me to the right aisle, found some, and some I did not know where was. Then I walked back to pay, and told myself, "did you find everything ok, Sir", Yes, I did, I said, I just lied, did not want to tell the poor cashier I had not found everything I wanted. I scanned the parts, and told myself how much I had to pay, and then I swiped the card, and finished the payment, pushed all the right buttons, and when I was done I gave myself the receipt, and told myself, thank you for visiting us, and I was polite and answered sure, and bye bye.
So far so good, but I have yet to get any paycheck for the work I did, and I have not gotten any benefits either. So, I am debating with myself if I want to go back and work for them again.
