I applied to part time work at HD three years ago. It got as far as an
interview, during which the manager asked me if I had any ideas for
doing the job better. I told him I'd arrive 20 minutes early, NOT
punch in, and spend MY 20 minutes familiarizing myself with the
aisles. He asked me why.
Do I need to go any further? I did not get the job, by the way.

Thank you, Joe, I appreciate it.

I think the trick is finding a time when there are more customers in the
store to distract the "help." Unfortunately, I do most of my business
early, when most people aren't.

Maybe I could get a fake cellphone and pretend I am on the phone. Or a fake
hearing aid and yell at them.
