Do Home Depot employees ever wonder what the customers’ projects are? More specifically, do they wonder about mine?
One of my brothers works at Home Depot and the other works at Ace. I can confirm that they DO wonder.
“So this customer just… went in and bought every single tube of silicone we had. It wasn’t many, to be fair, but then they also bought a bunch of dirt. They were really fussy about the TYPE of soil too.”
“They’re a reptile keeper and they’re making a new vivarium. I can guarantee it. Ask them what species they keep next time. I want to know.”
(a few weeks later)
“They keep crested geckos.”
There was a point where one of the employees at Home Depot recognized me as “that lady who builds lots of different things for a seemingly infinite number of different animals”. I was quite proud of that.
