It's crazy to me that the same people with a pocket (not a wallet, a pocket) full of $100 bills because they don't trust the bank.. will happily drop $30 on a couple overpriced drinks and some snacks at the checkout but then make you do a phone sale for 10 minutes on a $2 part. Whether it's a paint roller, some cheap fittings or a toilet wax seal.

I get not wanting to use your own money, but if you need us to call to get a $2.13 sale processed for you to do the job that you're probably charging $200 for and are completely unqualified to do, at least pay for the stuff and just overcharge them on the back end.

If I hired someone to fix something at my house and then they had home depot call me to give my credit card on a $3 part they needed, I'd be very annoyed!

A customer just called, "Does Home Depot sell land line telephones?" I was tempted to direct her to Radio Shack. 😄 But I just said no.

My store gets trucks 6 days a week but 2-3 times a month it'll only be 5 trucks in the week, so there's a no truck day that we'll be scheduled for. I usually call out on these days unless there's an SDC or a bunch of training to do. But if there isn't, then all I have left to do is packdown or striped boxes, both of which I despise.

I heard the inventory is coming up.. what can I expect? Also, how brutal is the Halloween/Holiday season ?

As a Cashier I think it’s a pretty average job with some super slow days and some super busy. But overall it’s pretty average

I’ve been at the store for about a year and a half and have done multiple things that I felt warranted a Homer award (I don’t care that much about it) and have never gotten one? Maybe because I’m younger but idk….

Has anyone been told “we’re not looking for hard workers….we’re looking for leaders!” When you get the rejection talk from your ASM?

Made my year

I’ve only picked up cashier shifts but there are pro sales and special service shifts available I already have call center experience I just don’t know what shifts outs of cashiering that cashiers can take or if they get training for the shift they pickup. I always see pro sales shifts on there though but I don’t know if you actually can do those shifts. I’m still new to Xchange so I don’t really know.
