Do they have employee discounts?
If they do, I should apply there just to get the employee discount.

I'm pretty sure that they don't. I had a buddy that worked there in college... he loved the job as he was one of the aforementioned folks that roamed the isles offering help and had none to offer (unless it was in lawn and garden). I know he was always happy working there. Made $10/hour I believe (he had some past retail experience) and his schedule was VERY flexible with college/testing/etc. They really went out of their way to make sure he had the schedule that he wanted.

I have a Home Depot story:
Bought some lumber for a project and somehow ended up with a 12 foot 2x4 leftover.
I had to go back for something else and figured why store this thing, I'll take it back.
So, I'm standing in the return line holding up this 12 foot board and this guy gets in line behind me with a basket full of plumbing parts. He's grumping and making noises of his displeasure at how slow the line was moving and I just couldn't resist.
I turned and said, "Have to exchange this. Realized I needed two six footers."
