I generally patronize Lowes but I can see more Home Depot visits in my future.

Home Depot awards $1,000 bonuses to hourly workers due to Trump tax cuts
By Jessica Chasmar - The Washington Times - Thursday, January 25, 2018
Home Depot is giving hourly workers in the U.S. a one-time cash bonus of as much as $1,000, crediting the Trump tax cuts.

ll U.S. hourly workers will get at least a $200 bonus in the current quarter, while employees of 20 years or longer will be awarded $1,000, the company told CNBC.

“We are pleased to be able to provide this additional reward to our associates for continuing to deliver outstanding customer service,” Home Depot President and CEO Craig Menear said in a statement. “This incremental investment in our associates was made possible by the new tax reform bill.”

The company said it is “still evaluating” all the provisions of the Republican tax plan but currently estimates that the impact on its 2018 tax provision and cash taxes paid “will be beneficial.”

Home Depot is the latest to say it’s boosting pay or benefits due to the passage of the Republican tax plan, which lowered the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent as of Jan. 1.


Get Trump. He make us look bad. Support Bernie. Raise taxes on the middle class. No more bonuses. Write a book and you can become wealthy.

“Never shopping @HomeDepot again,” wrote one Twitter user.

Great! There is just one less communist that will get pissed about my MAGA hat and Trump, MAGA tee shirt.

Mostly I get thumbs up at Home Depot, but a few people scowl and roll their eyes.

I smile and make sure I can easily get my pistol and continue on with my business.

They’re idiots, and apparently never saw him interviewed (often) before the 2016 election. Also, he hasn’t been involved with owning or running HD for years. How foolish they look.

TFor New York Post to print such defecation is a profound disappointment as it tosses away any pretense claiming objectivity. The reporter Chris Perez, the New York Post and its street walking editors should be made to be held accountable for abandoning any “J” standards deserves going the way of the New York Times. broke

Home Depot is very close and almost always has what I need. That the owner thinks Trump is better for us than anyone else on the stage these days is okay with me.

If he came out as a never-Trumper, that would be a major disappointment.

Home Depot was one of the companies opposed to the religious freedom bill in Georgia.

"Home Depot shoppers threaten boycott..."

'Home Depot shoppers? I doubt it. It would be more accurate to call them Trump haters, which is obviously their obsession.

It doesn't have a lot to do with shopping, at Home Depot or anywhere else. It's all about a political agenda.
