I just bought a bunch of 2x4s to build a partition wall in the
basement around our washer and dryer. I was ready to start building
the wall when I realized that Home Depot forgot to label the 2x4s so I
know which end is the top and which is the bottom. It figures Home
Depot would forget to put the "top" arrow on them. I thought I'd save
a few bucks going to Home Depot, but next time I'll go to a real
lumber store.

Don't think much of their nails either. Every other one or so, that I pick
up has the head on the wrong end. Fortunate for me my carpenter uncle
informed me that those odd nails are for the other side of the house.
