If you’re going to Home Depot, you will have to wear a mask once again, regardless of your vaccination status.
With the spread of the Delta variant of COVID-19, the national home-improvement chain announced Monday they are requiring all associates, contractors and vendors to wear masks while indoors at all U.S. Home Depot stores, distribution centers, and offices, as well as in customers’ homes and businesses.
Home Depot is also asking customers to wear masks while in their stores, and the company will continue to offer masks to those who don’t have one.
“Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, our number one concern has been for the health and safety of our customers and associates,” the company said in a statement released Monday.
Home Depot strongly encourages its employees to get the COVID-19 vaccine and offers free resources to cover childcare, transportation and finding an appointment, according to the statement.
Um, Menards was one of the first companies to require masks long before the first mandate. I even emailed the corporate office to tell them I would not shop there because of that. It was months before I stepped foot in their store when they began the statewide mandate. So, yeah, I fully expect Menards to cave soon.
But now that I've retired to Florida, the opposite is true. Lowes is much better at keeping inventory of what I need and having associates to help when I'm looking for someone to assist me.
Lowes also give a 10% discount to military veterans, no questions asked. They always thank me for my service.
Home Depot, on the other hand, reluctantly only gives their discount if you argue with them. The optics is real clear. I almost have to beg them for the discount.
I should say, I used to almost beg them for the discount, because I haven't shopped there in a couple of years.
Lowes may require masks again but they are not hard-core about enforcing it. That works for me since I don't wear a mask.
Yeah, with strong, "albeit delicately" stated words... and wet noodles...
Anyone else wondering why Deep State can immunize public health workers from CoupFlu related liability...
..but refuses to provide the same protection for American businesses...
Top Biden scientists says masks do not work...
And why Amwrican businesses aren’t screaming bloody murder about Deep State’s refusal to act...
Of course they don’t work.
Thats why the boxes of masks we bought used to say on them NOT FOR USE IN HEALTHCARE SETTINGS.
Using a disposable muzzle for protection against an airborne respiratory virus is like using chicken wire to keep out mosquitos.
Home Depot strongly encourages its employees to get the COVID-19 vaccine ...

Continue to do what didn’t work. Please pay no attention to the fact we’re now right back where we were before the “vaccines” as they’ve now been shown to not block transmission or replication of the virus.
I was going to go there today.
Guess not.
No, no deerstand.
The idea is to boldly walk into HD and force them to find the cojones to actually confront you. They won’t.
They're not mainstream and they're note normies. That's what the propaganda media wants everyone to believe.
When the CDC reports that in the last two weeks, there were more deaths from the covid vaccines than there were deaths from the covid itself, that's all I need to know.
It confirms my decision to not get the vaccine.
The vaccines look more and more like they don't work either.
Somebody's playing the long con on the public.
We still have a choice here, so adios, HD until you get adult leadership. What are you going to do next, start selling “woke wood”?
You think they'll be far behind?
Wonder if Home Depot just got a nice, big bribe from Deep State...
Governments contracts, tax incentives....
Yeah, they are out, like the former leaders over at Chick-fil-A. All woke and obnoxious now.
What I recall was from yrs ago so I suppose anything is possible. Good point about the NFL team owner although the owners are the ones who nappoint the NFL Preident.
I don’t think most of the owners are limp wristed Lefties.
Question for law enforcement: Are you going to respond to calls from Home Depot for muzzle violations....?
Amazing how readily some people will be cowed by the word “required”
mennards is even worse. Those f*ckers require you to BUY a mask from them for a buck if you dont have one. I’ll never shop there again.
