I was standing at a Home Depot self-checkout, looking all over for an employee to help me with an item, finding nobody. The guy next to me was waiting too and I asked him "does anyone work here any more?"

He said "I guess we do."

I wonder how they're going to get me to stock shelves and clean the restroom.

And then there is my local home depot which seems to have a 1:1 ratio of employees to shoppers much of the time. And they're all so chipper and helpful. Almost too much so.
