Behry, a play on the paint brand Behr (pronounced like bear).

u/LPineapplePizzaLover 8h ago

It's a double pun because it also sounds like burry because he's a skeleton

Do you have anything in bone white?

u/BarneyPoppy 9h ago

The color he's mixing is called "BONE WHITE"

I’d say this is a pretty accurate depiction of the customer service at my local Home Depot. It seems like they only have six employees working the entire store at any given time.

u/Rokronroff 8h ago

If they really try, I think they can get it down to four.

u/Baked_Potato_732 5h ago

Especially at the paint counter.

Interestingly the local Home Depot around me seems to have plenty of staff, but they throw everyone at the self checkout area to catch the ne’er-do-wells stealing screws so the rest of the store is a ghost town.

The Kilz hat really brings it together.

How it feels as a customer trying to find help in a Home Depot.

Mocking the customers waiting for help

Waiting for the customer to grab something they forgot

Never misses a shift but it takes forever to get your paint.

Look at this young gentleman, so full of life and vigor.

He waited and waited for an indecisive customer to choose which paint she wanted.

u/Kazko25 9h ago

My coworker got fired cuz she did something like this at my job.

u/LPineapplePizzaLover 9h ago

If they had no sense of humor I bet she was dying to leave anyway

u/Kazko25 9h ago

Yeah everyone in our office loved it, but the CEO didn’t when he came to visit :/

u/ACatsWrath 9h ago

Figured they'd have Santa up instead. Went the other day and it was overwhelmingly Christmas stuff.

3

u/Serafita 9h ago

Ask them if they can put a skeleton wearing santa gear up for Halloween haha

2

u/LPineapplePizzaLover 9h ago

One year in high school a kid showed up on Halloween dressed as Santa. Also my neighbors have had a skeleton up since last Halloween dressing it up for every holiday. This is giving that on Christmas lol
