How ya like my hat? Lowes hat

I was shopping in Lowes while wearing my Home Depot hat and when I asked for help I got mix directions. One employee said with a grin, “We don’t sell to your kind.”

Another pointed to the exit door and said, “Everything you need is right through that door.” Then a third man offered a trade, by giving me three brand new Lowe’s buckets for my hat.

Three buckets were set on my load of wood, while he said, “If you want these buckets, all you have to do is throw that hat in the trash.”

I took it off and replied, “What would I wear outside as my melanoma hat? Do you have a Lowes hat for my: how ya like my hat gig?”

“What do you mean: how ya like my hat gig?”

“It’s a thing I do on Facebook with hats. I buy used hats and write stories about them, some fact, some fiction.”

Here’s my hat and buckets and this story took place at the Lowes in the La Plata, MD.

“Let me see if I can find you a hat.” Then he came back with two different ones to choose from. I chose this one and made a deal to not wear the Home Depot hat in there anymore.
