Home Depot bouncy.

I could have sworn HD was on the boycott list, anyway....

Went to Home Depot this weekend to return an incorrectly purchased item.


 
While I was waiting as the next person in the return line, I could hear the female cashier say to the customer:
"As long as Obama is President, he's going to audit everyone's tax return".
Within 30 seconds, she yelled "NEXT".
I walk up to her register, and tell her "You're wrong about Obama."
She replied "In what way".
I said "Obama never mentioned in his campaign or debates that the IRS was going to audit everyone's tax return".
She then said "Well, he's going to take our guns as well."
I repeated "Obama never mentioned in his campaign or debates that the he was going after your guns".

I then finished the conversation by telling her
"You might want to listen to something other than Fox or Limbaugh. You might learn something."

I will not allow stupid people to make blanket statements without calling them on their facts.

2. So sad

It is really sad that people believe this stuff and the store should teach employees to not discuss politics.

It's really sad that you believe this story.

4. I went to Home Depot today

to return two hose bibs that weren't need on a job I was doing. I presented the receipt,
the hose bibs and the cashier asked me for a "government issued ID, like a drivers licence"

I balked and asked why, she told me it was new policy.So, to get my 12.00 back I had to show it.

I have been avoiding buying anything from there due to the way they treat their employees and that
just sealed the case.

Never did like that store very much anyway.

Damn racists at HD asking for ID.

6. That's why we go to Lowe's

They're not much better, but at least they know to shut up.

If Lowes open their mouth, it's bye bye Lowes, hello Ace Hardware.

This is the DUmmy who wants 0bama to blackmail congress into voting his way.

You should be supporting the locally owned Ace hardware instead of the evil Lowe's corporation.

What a weak effort.

Maybe this is why people in Texas laugh about Aggies.

[GCBill]

No cheering crowds? No cops? No moment of revelation for the store clerk?

What a lousy bouncy.

We go to Home Depot a lot, never once have I heard a personal conversation going on between an employee and a customer, especially at customer service, they're way too busy.

What we need here is to put on our thinking caps and come up with a bouncy of our own, say a Conservative that walks into a liberal run Gun Store and all the possible scenarios to that out come.

Lets start with you, DUmbshit.

This is a really bad bouncey.

For some reason at the end of their bouncies I always hear the music from "An Officer and a Gentleman" when Gere picks up the girl at the end and they walk away with everyone cheering.  EVERYTIME.

Except in the DUmmy version, Gere picks up Sgt. Foley and walks away.

Other than the fact that the OP is an obvious - and weak - bouncy, I only have one question. 

WHAT IN THE HELL IS A DUmbass DOING IN A "DO-IT-YOURSELF" STORE IN THE FIRST *******ED PLACE?

I'll guarantee you there were no FEMA bureaucrats offering to fix whatever was wrong with the DUmbshit's domicile in the Big Orange Box.  I fully expect that Skinner will denounce this turd for re-education; after slipping the post in question into the memory hole.

Easy there.....some people on this board are Aggies (me).  We are laughing at Texas (University of, that is) all the way to the Heisman.

Well I had to do some Christmas shopping and Hubby and I thought since it was snowing the Mall would be empty, so this is what we encountered when we went to 3 different store, no political arguments, no cops jumping out of the bushes, no political conversions, and since the left likes to stereotype? the descriptions of the Employees and Hubby and I are highlighted:

Hispanic Employee: Can I help you with anything?

Hubby and I White Folk: No thank you we know what we're looking for.

Head to another store:

Black Employee: Can I help you folks with anything

Hubby and I White Folk: No thank you, I think what we're looking for is right over here.

Then I have a question

Me White Folk: Sir, I think I do have a question

Black Employee: Sure

Me White Folk: I ask my question

Black Employee: Answers my question

Me White Folk: Thank You very much

Black Employee: No problem

Old White Male Employee: Can I help you folks with anything

Me White Folk: We found what we were looking for, but can you tell me where these items might be?

Old White Male Employee: Sure, they're both over there

Me White Folk: Thank You very much

Head to another store

Hubby and I White Folk: Sir, I'm looking for an item that I saw online and I can't seem to find it, do you know if it's in stock? or do I have to order it online?

White Gay Male Employee: Let me check our stock

Me White Folk: Great

White Gay Male Employee: Yes we have the item in stock, let me see where they put it

Me White Folk: Awesome

White Gay Male Employee: Here it is

Me White Folk: Thank You very much, we appreciate it

Old White Lady Folk: You can come over here to my register

Hubby and I White Folk: Great, thank you

Old White Lady Folk: Did you find everything you needed?

Me White Folk: Yes I did, thank you

You forgot to add

Liberal standing in corner huffing and puffing no racism/homophobia/gender assassination going on

And BTW, our conversations were typical of the conversations we saw going on around us.

FOAD DUmmies, if you can't get the "humor".

When I read this this, I started to bring it over. I looked to see if it was here and it wasn't. Then I though, enough of these lame bouncies and didn't do it.

Never...and I am there a lot. 10% Military discount.
