Ring-a-Ding Ding

I’m just wondering why Industries haven’t the least iota of ethics these days. After all, if they did, we’d note their advertisements would have something besides a hollow ring.
“Ask not for whom the bell tolls.” It be a ringin’ for you, Lowe’s.
Yesterday, May 14, I meandered into Lowe’s.
“Let’s build something together,” Gene Hackman will overtone.
Uh huh.
So how come, not one, not one man, male, boy, etc, would make eye contact or answer my queries for assistance to locate the one item I wished to purchase?
And before the snide remarks or thought processes begin, I may be 54 years of age, but I look younger and I was dressed nicely and freshly bathed. I’m not some off putting, drooling monster. I have manners and use them.
All I wanted was a rope saw. One little, branch cutting, tree trimming, manual utile rope saw.
Not a large purchase. But as I tend to be a bit Tomboyish and have been known to drop large amounts of monies in the self-help, home improvement stores…..
So I trotted my happy little self to Home Depot and made my purchase there. Oh, by-the-by., they didn’t have the rope saw either. But, they had the roof sealant, specialty light bulbs, a trowel, limb loppers, and a few other things I’d been intending to purchase. I decided I might as well get them while I was out.
It did add up, but, things cost these days. And oh, my goodness, I had several people, ladies too, asking me if they could assist. Almost from the time I hit the open door, there were orange aproned folks available.
So very nice to have a welcoming atmosphere in a store. I needed some assistance with merchandise location. Sometimes I did not. But, it was nice to have the options.
So guess, just guess where I will be shopping and spending my money? Yep.
And now guess what I’ll be telling all my friends and e-mailing to all my “lists?” Yep.
Oh, ding-dong. That bell will be tolling in the distance, Lowe’s, as I wait for Home Depot to open their doors.
