A young family had moved into their FEMA trailer in Lakeview. The house next door was being gutted, leveled and renovated from floor to ceiling. The young family's five-year-old daughter naturally took an interest in all the activity going on next-door and spent much of each day observing the construction workers.
Eventually the construction crew, all of them gems-in-the-rough, more or less adopted the girl as a kind of project mascot. They chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had coffee and lunch breaks,and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make her feel important. At the end of the first week they even presented her with a pay envelope containing a crisp new five-dollar bill. The little girl was thrilled and took this home to her mother who said all the appropriate words of admiration and suggested that they take the five-dollar"pay" she had received to the bank to start a savings account.
When they got to the bank, the teller was equally impressed and asked the little girl what she had done to earn so much at such a young age. The little girl proudly replied, "Last week I worked with the crew rebuilding the house next door to us."
"My goodness gracious", said the teller, "and will you be working on the house this week, too?"
The little girl replied, "I will if those *******s at Home Depot ever deliver the ####ing sheet rock."

Funny but oh so true. Home Depot is the WORST for delivering what you paid for, when you scheduled it for.
