Home Despot - a place for wannabe interior decorators. Like Ron Swanson said to an employee at HD "I know more than you."
People with manly man projects go to real lumber yards where you lean on a counter and talk to a clerk and a yardman pulls and brings you your materials with a forklift and loads them on your trailer - because strapping your load down to a trailer and driving away is a manly man thing to do...........No little carts needed.
In Germany we have hardware stores (is that the right description of stores like home depot?) that have a covered outdoor section where you can drive in with your car/ trailer and load up construction supplies and then pay.
If you are a real professional you probably go to "stores" that only sell building materials to businesses or you just get your materials delivered directly to the job site.
I feel this way about Lowes vs home depot. Home depot for the real projects, Lowes to buy the designer hammer that never gets used...
