Don’t you know, Anna? The American public could not purchase merchandise from retailers before the invention of the computer! I mean, however would you know how much to pay? What about tax? And you certainly couldn’t expect the employees to know how much money you needed back if you payed for a $9.99 item with a $10 bill! THE WHOLE WORLD STOPS WITHOUT COMPUTERS!

One more time – you are far more patient than I am. I would have left everything, gone to Starbucks and then come back when the checkouts were fixed.

Oh, wow, the professionalism and the staff’s knowledge of how to do their job dazzles me.

How does one stand in line for so long and not start choking bitches, by the way? Is that sort of patience something that comes with parenthood or must you be born with it? Because I would have. Choked a bitch, that is.

The dude had to write a check. When HomeDepot thought their computer system had started fully working, it really was only at 90%, so this guys card (whatever it was) was getting rejected or it was saying ‘call for authorization’, and he, like me, had no patience for this anymore, so he volunteered to go out to his car, leave his goods inside, come back, and write a check (This is how much longer we were waiting for that …receipt…..)

LOL I love your writing, it always keeps me on the edge of my seat! Hilarious, but terrible time at the Depot. And who writes checks these days anyway?

We don’t have a conveniently located Across The Street Lowes. There is a Lowes a freeway exit away but WE ALREADY HAD WHAT WE WANTED and Ben was looking for a specific set of digital calipers and while the Lowes near us does have a much better supply of home goods, it’s tool department is lacking.

Plus, that would have been a much more boring blog post.
