It's a safe bet to assume that if they're asking you for something, they're asking you for the bathroom. Or your sister.
So when they are making inquiry, ask them the following: Donde esta el bano?
Pronounce: Don-day eh-stah el bon-yo? The o in Don is a long o. Sort of.
You racist bastard, you. Expecting people coming to live in this country to speak English. The very idea.
They were bad and then they got good, a new manager and they hired employees.
Now it seems like they've back slid. Still not as bad as it was, it's just harder to find help in the aisles.
Probably need to hire more people could either be the business can't support it or they can't get the people.
You out to put that on Twitter @Lowes and see if they reply.

Hard to find help? I can't get them to leave me alone.
Nice trick, since Lowe's has never had blue aprons.
...and hasn't had display tubs with water since the Legionnaire's Disease scare over 30 years ago.
Hmm..mebbe it was Home Depot? ;-)
Scheduling has been a bugaboo for quite a while, as has having enough qualified folks to be on the floor helping customers.
Orange there, THOUGH, Lowe's did have a Blue Vest program for a couple of years to make management easier for customers to find.
I'd like to see the customers agitate for the reinstatement of that program.
The managers did not like it, made them easier targets for customers with valid complaints.

That is the honest truth. The only reason we moved from Calvert to Montgomery was for love of family. Montgomery County is like living in a foreign country. I, actually, can speak Spanish after all those years of learning it in school. It is all the other languages I hear that hurt my ears. You do what you have to do. And, yes, if one is privileged to live here, learn English. Period.
God bless, America.

Steven has always been very helpful when I have been unsure of what to get! He is an asset to Lowes!
Thank you!

Ahhhh, but there is a secret. You have to be an early mourning shopper at Lowes to avoid the help. By arriving at 7:30-8:00 you'll find the majority of help arriving for the days work, then, being called for their daily briefing and motivational sermon by management where they all gather and huddle together either in the appliance section, in front of flooring, or another open area, that will last about 10-15 minutes. It is at that time Lowes is like a desert. Peaceful and quiet. Give it a try. What say you Steven?

Next time you are there, ask for "Scotty". Examine the knot on his forehead carefully..... ask him about his $100,000.00 Mustang...

why are you mourning..did someone die?? if I may???....
I have not attended a morning huddle in a over a year. I work only 12 - 20 hours a week these days (since returning from the sick leave related to the pancreatic cancer surgery 3 years ago). Even when I was physically there, I did not attend.
Today makes 15 years and 9 months with Lowe's, my 3rd store in that time. Lots of changes in that time, not all to the good of either customers or hourly employees.

Truth be told, most members don’t care about spelling. Most can catch the drift of a post even if something is misspelled. We/You/I have more serious things to concern ourselves with. JMO.
English is not required in the USA, anymore, so you’re good.

Yes, well, part of being here, for myself, is the continuing education of writing correctly in a coherent way to convey and articulate my thoughts. While far from perfect, I do like the challenge of arranging words with the proper usage. I mean really, how often does anyone really get a chance to write anymore? It keeps me thinking anyway. And I think, good practice. It's good that I was called out on the homophones. Like being graded in school. Keeps me sharp. However, if it was tranny, kevin, or any of the other MPD's, that tried to correct me, I might have replied with some of my demerit earning creative witty vitriol.
