So I special order a new storm door from home depot over 2 weeks ago.
I call up on wed. night 6/29 and the lady tells me

"Your door is on a truck and will be arriving in the store tonight (Wed.)"

Now I call today (2 days later) and the women on the phone tells me my door
is "scheduled" to arrive tomorrow 7/2!! and get this.. it didn't SHIP until 6/30

How the fvck was it supposed to arrive Wed. according to the one person when it didn't ship until Thurs??

I'm so pissed off, I have a buddy coming over tomorrow to help install the door.

The door better be there tomorrow or I'm climbing up someones ass.

That and the fact you can never get any help at Home Depot are the reasons I shop at Lowe's.

edit: They did the same thing to my dad on a grill. Took 2 months to get the damn things after they said it would take 2 weeks.

Since he's at Home Depot, he can install a swing and maybe some patio lights while he's up there.

that particular person lied to avoid getting bitched out. So the next person who speaks to you can take the heat for it.

The kicker is the first lady asked if she could call me back and did so about 30 minutes later with the answer of Wed.

Here's an even better reason to hate Dome Despot: They're one of the TOP abusers of Eminent Domain legislation in the United States. They are literally responsible for the takings of THOUSANDS of homes from private citizens at the hands of a government that's been out of control on Property Rights for *decades*.

I suppose Lowes is at fault too then. It seems that Loews' strategy is to build a store across the street from an existing home depot.

After working there long enough, I realized that if you piss, moan, bitch, whine, and complain long enough, they will give you the price or discount you want to shut you up.

Heh, I shop at both HD and Lowes - but that's because, at the most, I need to ask "Where is the pipe insulator?" "It's with the insulation" "WTF? Why isn't it with the pipe?" "I dunno"

When I go into one of those places, I know exactly what I want, and if they don't have it on hand, I'll go elsewhere.

We went thru the same thing with our bathroom cabinets. aid a small fortune for them and had our expected delivery date. We called on that date and after being on hold for ages, we were told they were in. Went to go and pick them up and not only werent they in.... they had not even shipped yet.

Huge carry on with the manager until we FINALLY got our stuff... two weeks later!!!

I applied for a job at Home Depot and I also checked the box to apply for Expo Design Center too, and I got a call back from Expo. So I went there (its about half of an hour away), and I had a really great interview, so the chick tells me that she'll call me. About three weeks later, I get a call from them again, it's a guy this time and he wants to interview me. So I thought, "Oh, cool, this is dope, I'm on my way to the second interview, I'll probably get the job. Sweet!", well I get there, and I wait for about 20 minutes. Finally the dude comes out and starts asking me these basic questions which were asked in the first interview. So I wasn't too upset or concerned, because I wasn't sure if this guy just wanted to get some general knowledge of me for himself or what, but then about halfway through he realizes that this is my second interview, not my first. And he apologizes to me saying that it was completely unnecessary for me to come out, but he will definitely give me a call later on during the week. That sucked, but I brushed it off because I chalked it up to a communication error. No biggie. Well about a week later, I get a call from the original chick who interviewed me, and she says that she has a management position open and she wants me to fill it. So I told her that would be awesome, and I would be totally down for it. She says that I only have to do a phone interview with someone at 1:30 the next day. So I figured that would be great, I didn't mind because it meant I didn't have to shower. W007! So the next day comes along, and this guy calls. I talk to him for about five minutes, and he gives me directions to Expo for a face to face interview. Ooookkayy. So I go there again, and he gives me a first interview again. I was getting a little bit annoyed driving out there for three first interviews, but I figured it would be a nice job to have, so I didn't sweat it too much. I go there to talk to the guy, we talk for about five minutes (again!), he says he will have someone call me and he sends me on my way. At this point I am almost through with this joint, they are very unorganized and it seems like they just give people interviews to fill time. So, two weeks go by, I get a call from the first chick who interviewed me, and she's apologizing to me, because she sent me to the wrong person, and she says "I'm sorry, don't worry, I really want you to work here, don't listen to anyone but me. If anyone calls you just tell them that I am working with you, and I am in charge of you. Okay? So if the guy you just interviewed calls you, just have him talk to me." So, about a week goes by and the chick calls me and says she is working on an opening for me and she will call me to update me on it. She never called back again, and didn't return my phone calls. So I am boycotting Home Depot and Expo Design Center.

HD sucks...they're customer service is pretty crappy. I only go there because their lumber is better than Lowes...but for everything else, Lowes is where I shop.
