I guess there is a whole tree full of us nuts out here, then.
They had to pull me off the ceiling when I saw what they'd done
to all the orchids at Home Depot. Now, I'd probably never buy
an orchid from Home Depot. Nonetheless, it was murder pure and
simple. Inexcusable. If they can't even care for them properly
for the month or 2 they have them, then they shouldn't buy them.
Period. Full stop. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. So I complained and
received a form letter thanking me for my query. Uh huh.
