Just another day at Home Depot and my mission was to find fluorescent lights. Simple enough. It just meant a trek all the way from the PROs desk, clear across the store—again—to hunt them down.
There is a gentleman standing there, very tall and quite large. As I am searching for the right size, I got hit with the new problem, “diameter?” Darn, they come in diameters!
Same large gentlemen and I walk over to the chart and together we figure out which one I need. Together we shuffle back to the choices, and the nice gentlemen pulled it down for me.
He then reached down, put his arm around me, hand on my rib cage and pulled me up close for a hug!
My heels left the ground.
My eyes popped out of my head.
All I could do was stammer, “Well, umm, now that’s a moment.” And I kinda stammered and walked away.
Back to the PROs desk, I repeat the story, laughing, “Well, I think I still got it!” Mind you, I am quite far away from being that cute 20-something that lives in my memory.
Gotta love Home Depot, never know what will happen.
I am not surprised you are still turning heads and thank you, I will try that trick. Of to Home Depot to help strangers...and by the way, you are very funny. I am jealous.
ReplyDeleteYou are so very kind, and funny yourself. Bring your kids to HD, lots of aisles to burn off their energy!
