Yesterday I went into my local LOWE'S store to get one pressure relief fitting for a hose bib. I spent about 10 minutes looking for the part in their bins so I wandered around until I found one of their employees. I showed him a photo of the part I needed and he looked in his hand held 'puter. After searching for a few minutes he told me the aisle and bin where it was supposed to be. We were standing right there. So I asked him if he couald find it and he stood there dumbfounded and said 'I can't find it". Well no shit bro.
At that point I asked him to see how many were supposed to be in stock. "18". So I asked where they were. He looked at the jumble of boxes on top of the shelving for about 30 seconds and said "I can't find them." Then he walked away, leaving me standing there wondering WTF?
I finally found a different employee and he couldn't find them either.
So then we bought a few other things and I tried to pay with two Lowe's cards. They were rejected because the computer did not recognize my driver's license number. They kept inputting the number and it kept getting rejected.
Know what the definition of Insanity is? Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. They told me to call the number on the back of the cards and have them digitally tied to my driver's license. Me. I gotta call. It's not my frickin' problem that something is wrong with their computer, but I gotta wait on hold for probably 20 mins before I get to talk with someone.
So I finally paid for the stuff we were buying and left.
F'n Lowes.
