You can read the thread about welcome to Lowes, don't touch my displays.I needed to buy a washing machine.  I took the advice from Doug ("don't mess with my displays")  and lying Lesley (claimed to be store manager but is assistant manager, claimed to have called me twice but didn't call, told me he doesn't let his kids touch things at stores) - I didn't touch the washing machine at Lowes.Instead, I'm now touching the same machine Lowes carries at the same price, but I purchased it at Home Depot.  The drive is a little longer, but at least Doug and Lesley are happy. 4951

I guarantee they didn't. These big places just straight up don't care. One washing machine isnt going to make or break them. 4951

@ZMAN: Yep, they deal in volume at the lowest prices.  Service isn't really that important.  Lowes stock has performed well over the years.

@fcabanski: Good work! You happy now...?
 
 
Lowe's, the home improvement chain, said Wednesday that it is redeploying its workforce in a way that will eliminate about 2,400 positions, most of them in management.The biggest change will occur in the stores, where Lowe's says it can cut one or two assistant manager positions as it tries to shift the focus "from back-of-the-store activities to customer facing ones," the company said in a statement. The move will "enhance our efficiency and productivity." 4951

I don't really care one way or the other.  But maybe I'll get a store credit out of it if I keep bothering them.  It takes a few minutes, it's also enjoyable to mess with someone who was rude to me. 4951

Don't pat your self on the back for being an attention loving fool.  Your complaints most likely go into the ignore file anyhow.  Messing with someone appears you have noting better to do with your time. 4951

Last year Lowes quoted a roof replacement on my house. The price wasn't bad, but when I asked more questions I had to laugh. They use outside contractors and they wouldn't provide any insurance info, and they wanted the money upfront.
The best part is that they wanted me to sign a paper that said that I couldn't file a lawsuit against them if something went wrong.

I didn't want attention.  I wanted to look at bathroom fixtures - toilet paper dispensers. 4951
