This reminds me of a comment I saw the othe night re Wal-mart on the tube...

"Remember when Wal-Mart bragged of carrying products made in the USA? Now 
you're lucky if any of their WORKERS are from the USA.."

When I go to Wal-Mart, I don't ask for help from their sales people...most 
of whom I can't understand. And when people talk of jobs going to other 
countries...they miss the point IMO that *many jobs in the US* are now being 
carried out by foreign workers here at home...many of whom are undocumented. 
IMO, we're giving away the farm here at home AND abroad....and no one seems 
to care about what is happening...much less speak towards it for fear of 
being labelled as a racist.

Here...the difference between HD and Wal-Mart's employees is staggering. 
Their customer service may not be what it once was...but at least you can 
understand what they're saying. From my experiences at HD, I've yet to see 
their workers speak to the next checker in Spanish as if I'm not there...
