My husband worked for them for a while after retiring from the Air Force. During orientation they BRAGGED about things like this!

One example I remember is a hot water heater company that was asked to provide their hot water heater with a different name attached because customers for some reason thought a certain company made them that did not and would often ask for X brand. So they asked a firm manufacturing them to put a different name on them (the one customers THOUGHT made hot water heaters - X brand). When the manufacturer refused, HD deliberately put them out of business by taking ALL their business to another firm that WOULD put X brand on their water heaters! This was a source of pride for them ~ they discussed it with all new employees as in ‘see how huge we are?’

Pathetic. Reminiscent of the Ford suit brought by the man that invented the intermittent windshield wiper. Hooray for the little guys!
