I really thought I could come up with at least two more. But, after thinking it over, basically that pretty well covers it for me.
JOAT Always put off until tomorrow something which, tomorrow, you could put off until, let's say, next year.

I may real color myself a newbie by saying so, but I like Lowe's. The employees can't be relied upon in general to provide any good educational information, but it's reasonable well laid out, I like their products in general, and I enjoy my trips to the store. My major complaint is that our Lowes has the world's slowest checkout line.
I would have added the girls at the registers. Different HD's have different, shall we say, "hiring standards", but the one near me only hires the cream of the crop. ; )

Once in a while you get to help out another customer with her questions that the clerk can't assist.
Special note: be sure she is young, pretty, no wedding ring . . . you know who she is - the one in the shiny pink jogging boxers with the stretched top and no kids! :-)

On the contrary. My Ace sells everything but cherry. Prices are decent also.
Ah, c'mon, here's my Top 10 Things I Like About the Borg:
Ours are about 100 yards apart so you can bounce back between them without much pain. I do think having them close encourages them to compete for your business. The HD was abysmal before the Lowes went in. Now, it's well stocked with better employees.
I really complain about my local Lowe's but got very pleasantly surprised today. I walked in and met a former coworker who now works there. He was headed home and "away from this Hell hole". Made a little fun of him for working there and related a incident I witnessed where a customer at the only open line (about 20 people in line) stepped up looking for a refund and was told she needed to go to the customer service counter and she replied she had been there for a half hour and couldn't get waited on. They went back and forth, each saying the same thing, and about the time a manager type started over a customer behind me hollered, "Hey, lady, you'd think you never shopped at Lowe's before". He found that funny. And very believable.
I then went to lamps looking for some small parts. I know better to look for the gnomes (pronounce the g) as they are a waste of time. To my surprise one walked up and asked to help and actually got me to the place I needed. I headed to another area and the same thing happened. I then headed for the check out and there were several open and one with no customers. And the check out girl even knew how to work the cash register.
Hard to believe but then I've been sick. I may have taken too much medication and this was all in my mind.

ya, if you can't get through the line with your wood, at least you can get a woody while you wait....hehehee.
Yeah, there's usually long lines at the 1 or 2 lanes open, but it's funny that the customer service desk is always empty. I just walk past the long lines, check out there and leave. :-) YMMV
