Lowes was empty today

Rare to see almost no customers in the one around here. I needed to replace a broken cheap yard sprinkler to try to keep my shrubs and gardens alive since it's only rained about 3/4 inch in the last 2.5 months and hell, I can't remember when it was below 95 for a high. Well, who knew Kobalt sold sprinklers. For 60 ****ing dollars! The $10 odd brand was junk so I got the almost junk for $20 but it does have brass nozzles.

Large flashlights ran from $30-$90 ****ing dollars!

As I was mumbling to myself that "we all know WHO is responsible for this" a Lowes employee who monitors the self-checkouts (which is all there is in my area) came up behind me and said "If I had a dollar every time I heard that I could quit."

His approval rating is not "just below 30% for the first time." It has to be like 15% but I know the rich ****s who never actually buy sprinklers, food or gas for themselves are the majority of the ones giving him that 15-29% nod.

A fictional , the part about the employee being the fiction.

You mumbled this? And an employee heard it from some distance, knew what it meant, and appanrently hears it all the time from customers?

And they wonder why we find their anecdotes difficult to believe.

That,s why we need to raise minimum wage to $25.00 an hour so things will get cheaper!

Cheaper as long as we are giving them free health care.

I've been thinking, we really ought to come up with a term for this sort of stuff coming from the left. "Magical thinking" really doesn't do it justice. It's more like the economic equivalent of breaking Newtonian law, or saying "if the fish jumps, the water doesn't move at all".

I have a question? What's a DUmmy doing at Lowes? I mean isn't that a place for people who do their own work on their homes and such? A magnet for MAGA people if ever there is one,LOL.
