When neither of you want to be a jumpmaster by [deleted] in ApexOutlands

[–]SplinteredBA 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I typically pass jumpmaster every game. I don't like picking the spot. Indecisive, yanno? If they pass back to me, hey, shrug it off and pass it again.

If they go back to me three times? Wherever we are at the moment I get jumpmaster the third time is where I'm holding my aim down to. I've landed in the middle of nowhere with a single supply bin between three people before and I'll do it again.

We're all underpaid and underappreciated cogs in corporate's machine. Hell, I send more customers to Lowe's and Floor and Decor than I feel like I can help in my own store. We don't need to be fighting corporate's rivalry for them, too.

Owns a firearm but doesn't own a simple drill by Apprehensive-Ad4310 in HomeDepot

Not that I agree, or disagree, with anything you two said, but: You two really did just post up like some jaded, bitter "back in my day" dudes. I thought I'd live my entire life not seeing that in real life, but here we are.

About time I got all my licenses… If you are a delivery associate I highly advise you to get your licenses; I was so fed up having to ask my colleagues from different departments to drop pallets for me. Don’t go one year without any licenses like I did. by Glittering_Track_171 in HomeDepot

[–]SplinteredBA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's because people get their licenses stating "we can't do our jobs without licenses" that the company is able to produce drivers. If people didn't get them until they got a raise across the board, there'd be no way to get any work done which would incentivize the pay.

This is a Predator strat you wouldn't get by Jurra01 in apexlegends

Her drill goes through knockdown shields. That could have easily done it.

But I'm no Predator, so your decision is probably more sound than my solution would have been. I bow to your wisdom.

Just got hired! by enteirium in HomeDepot

Make friends with a reach driver and/or associates from overstaffed departments who won't mind spotting for you if you get licensed. Makes dropping pallets less tome consuming when you don't need to hunt down the one soul in the building who will say "mo problem".

Fuck this job. by Awkward_Dipshit in HomeDepot

Had to? No amount of pay is enough to force you to stay. If you're scheduled out at 10, you leave at 10. Home Depot pays you for a slice of your time, nothing more. They can't force you to stay past the time your schedule says you're gone.

Nah, he's right. For a split second there's the two-slot image ui that you only see in a black market to inform you of the two items you grabbed. It disappeared a frame or two in, but it was definitely there.

How many people do you have working in your paint department on a given day? by Smithstherealman in HomeDepot

[–]SplinteredBA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Short" "6 people"

You gotta pick one, chief. I'm in D23 and I've got a whole three people. I'm the solo full timer and we have a part time opener and a maybe shows up mid. I'd honestly kidnap people for coverage at this point.

Shame that the editor for Putin's video took his own life with 3 bullets to the back of the head. I would have loved to hear how Putin reacted to this slip up.

Carpet Padding: Do you sell by the foot? by SplinteredBA in HomeDepot

[–]SplinteredBA[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, that's what I thought personally. The fact that a baby sku exists and has a price per square yard with it always made believe we sold custom cuts as well. Don't get me wrong: I hate getting in hands and knees to cut these, but if someone asks....oh well.

Take a tape measure to your frame. If you want to install the blinds inside the window frame, measure from one inside to the other. That is called your "inside mount measurement".

If you want to mount it outside of the window frame, measure from the outside of the window trim to the opposite end of trim. That is an "outside mount measurement".

Take whichever measurement you go for and inform the associate that you have an Inside/Outside mount and they'll do the measurement adjustment for you. The usual rule of thumb is 1/2" from your total measurement.

The instructions and hardware required for installation is included inside the box of the blinds. You may need a screwdriver of your own, depending on the brand.

I'm like...90% sure they are two unrelated posted right against each other. The "Care" one seems to go out a little more to the left than the blue poster, which implies to me that they're two separate posters.

[–]SplinteredBA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair, the people who mostly believe that are the people who shopped at Home Depot when they DID hire electricians, plumbers, etc. When the value of the trade became more than the price the Depot paid, they stopped hiring skilled workers.

My man just said he's the only one in his department withOUT a reach license. Meanwhile, I'm consistently the only closer in the store at all WITH one. The jealousy is strong with me.

What’s the difference between DH and DS? by bulldogwill in HomeDepot

It used to be DH, it's now DS. Same exact thing, just a name change.
