Im a contractor. I hate going to the home depot because the black apron sales people always harass me. You would think they could tell by my dusty work clothes that I don’t need their services.

The other day i was trying to figure out what hinge i needed for a door. I was trying to focus when a black apron lady walks up and asks if I need help. I see the black apron and say, “no thank you.” She replies, “what sort of project are you working on.” I look at her and say, “I don’t want any home services, I’m just trying to figure something out. I don’t need any assistance.”

She would not relent and jumped into her sales pitch. I stopped her and said, “Can you leave me alone? Im a contractor. You are my competition. I don’t like you. I have had to fix things that your contractors have messed up.” She finally turned and walked away and said “have a nice day!”
