means nothing, their customer base speaks Spanish too. Personally I think
they could probably improve their business by having bilingual signage,
etc. Around here Spanish speakers are a large minority and a whole mess
of them are in the DIY homeowner category and/or are involved in some kind
of building trade.

About 20 years ago I moved to Florida. I had taken the wife to Hialeah to
some shop she just had to go to.
Across the way was a HD. I wanted to pick up some vents to put in the eaves
of our new house. I could not find anyone in the store who could understand
what I wanted and where they were.
