To be fair, Home Depot was the same way when I went last week.

Can't really argue with this. Google or YouTube your problem before going to Lowe's.

You should work there if you're not happy with it. Get the wheels of change spinning. The world (Lowe's) is your oyster.

Lowes is awesome. They're open late have a lot of stuff. Your right in saying the employees song have a bunch of knowledge so figure out what you want before you go. You can usually find someone that can show you where the stuff you need is (not necessarily how to use it).

The one I go to a lot of time only has one open but they also have a self checkout with four stations. FYI, there is also the pro checkout usually at the other end of the store, usually no one in that line.

Or they'll have some dork that thinks he knows everything. When you ask for a #10 pan-head 1" stainless steel screw he'll ask, "well, what are you using it for?" Doesn't matter what I'm using it for douche, tell me what drawer contains that screw. Lowe's people like that rile me up. Thankfully, they're not all that way.

That's why you use the self checkout....

If you don't know what you need then you shouldn't be going there.

I hate their service except in the paint department. They usually have good people working there at the location by my house. So I would say you are spot on with the employees part. I love Lowes though. I usually know what I want or what I'm looking for so I don't deal with their employees much. I also like their tool selections.

Go to your local Ace or whatever mom & pop hardware store if you have questions or issues that need troubleshooting or advice.

So you expect a bunch of people who are getting $8-10/hr as clerks in a store to be experts in all things home improvement?

I'm just happy if they can tell me where in the store is the item I'm looking for.

I always use the contractors entrance. There is usually 4-5 people just hanging around down there.

Lowe's is basically wal mart for tools and home improvement. If you expect their staff to help you figure out how to fix something, you are a fool. Join the rest of the world and learn how to use google to figure out how to do something.

If the employees just couldn't help you find soemthing, then shame on them. That's where Lowes usually has good customer service.
