I see these jokes all of the time but I have never seen a group of Mexicans hanging out at HD looking for work and I doubt anyone making these jokes has.


are you blind or stupid?


Home Depot on Coursey. There's a live oak tree in the parking lot close to Burger King corner. I guarantee you there is at least 3 under the tree right now. I've never been to that location and not seen 3-5 hispanics waiting under that tree.

I don't live in BR so maybe it just doesn't happen here in LC? I have never seen it and I have employed tons of Mexicans over the years and being a contractor I also spend more time inside of HD than an average person.

100% true. In fact, there is a Hispanic food truck that parks in that gas station every day now, which I assume is because of those guys.

I was there a few months back, and rented a trailer so I could bring home my new mower. I had it hitched to the back of my truck, and was driving it around to the front of the store. On my way through the parking lot (had my window down), I heard "Amigo! Amigo!" coming from the group of them near the tree. I guess they saw my trailer and thought I needed help with something. This was late afternoon on a Sunday.
