Home Depot, Adventure #1: The other day, while hiding...er....sitting in my self-imposed four walled cell of a Kitchen cabinet design center, I was handily dispatched...or what they called in the Air Force, "VOLUNTEERED." for a special assignment. "Hey Pops," Bob-one of our esteemed department heads asked. How would you like to sit outside in the fresh air and get a suntan for a few hours....?" Well...you didn't have to hit me over the head with a shovel, or ask me twice. Being an old carpenter and fisherman/hunter...I always love a chance to get outdoors. It hasn't been in my nature recently, but I never turned down a chance to get some sunshine. As it turned out, it was a pretty good assignment. HD had put a bunch of items on clearance-mainly to draw the weekend shoppers, then set up shop, under a nice tent, complete with table and chair. All I had to do, was give away a chance at a drawing for a gas BBQ, sponsored by Tuff Shed, and keep an eye on the other products, so they didn't "WALK" away....;) Oh...I could tell you about all the beautiful tanned girls and women in short shorts and other thingies...but that would be interesting. Instead I will tell you about one old couple... Stay tuned....If she takes it off, I will be embarrased. |
