[Revelation 911]

I've never personally been to a Chase-Pitkin store, but I've seen several, and this is indeed a loss.

I live in Roch - the stores are notorious for crappy service and sales staff that disappears the minute you ask the difference between thinset and portland

I get swarmed at Home Depot -

the closures are IMO a result of that

[jude24]

My best friend used to be a carpenter apprentice. He always sneered at Chase-Pitkin, always choosing Home Depot instead.

It sort of rubbed off onto me.

[Dan Nunn]

Like I said, I haven't been to a Chase Pitkin. As far as Home Depot, I can't for the life of me figure out why they have checkout isles 1-12 when they only use one of them!

Kidding aside, I do usually go to Home Depot for the heavy duty project stuff. I don't usually get that far into a project though, so Wal-Mart usually suffices!

I bet you will understand this, then:

A friend of mine who is in a construction type trade once made the remark to me that "apparently wearing yellow makes your IQ drop ten points."

To which I replied "yeah, and wearing orange makes you annoying."
