Dear Knuckleheads:
Recently I came into your store to purchase some #10 x 1.25” pan head screws and fender washers for them. It took me more than 10 minutes to decipher your horrendously labeled and counter-intuitive Fastener aisle. Of course, no staff were available to assist. They were busy avoiding work, walking around with their masks down around their necks.
But let’s break down the problem:
- Labeling – how about putting useful information on all your packages of washers? Such as the screw size they fit? Instead, we get the size of the opening which leaves us guessing as to the screw size that fits. Some packages have this information, others do not.
- Quantity of washers in a package – 3. Really? 3? Not 2, not 4, not 12, but 3. Sheer moronic imbecility.
- Quantity of screws in a package – 7. Because 7 mates up so well with 3, right? Of course. It’s intuitive.
I wish I could fix the problem by visiting Lowe’s but they also live in your (shallow) end of the gene pool. In fact, I know coffee mugs with more intelligence than you two.
Please – get a clue.
George
