Home Depot Also Enjoys Printing Dirty Words On Receipts

By cwalters February 20, 2008

Oh look, Americans also enjoy putting shocking phrases on receipts. Yesterday’s UK restaurant surprise reminded one of our interns of a receipt sent in a few weeks ago from Brad in California: “got this receipt from home depot today…. look closely just below the total and you will see something surprising…. lol.” Probably NSFW, unless you work at Home Depot or Joe Delucci’s Italian Restaurant.

Update: Rumor has it the receipt sender may actually be the “cock sucking faggot.” Someone named Aaron just wrote in,

I hate to stick up for HD, Really I do. But on the self service kiosk, you type in the job name yourself so that if you work for a company you can track by your own purchase order or job name.

This has nothing to do with HD, but rather the person who sent in the receipt.

Does anyone know whether this is a self-service kiosk receipt?

    @B: Don’t they usually just run away from customers at your HD? I’ve only ever seen the back of those orange aprons.

    @coolsright:
    Unnecessary and flagged by a few of your fellow commenters. Dial it back a notch, please.

    I just bought a can of paint at Home Depot today at the self checkout. And guess what?! The cashier name is SCOT57. So SCOT## definitely stands for self-checkout…because looking at another receipt where I didn’t use self checkout, it doesn’t say SCOT## at all. This guy entered this himself, because when you use a business credit card, it asks for you to type the PO yourself.

    I do work for HD and ALL self checkout registers are SCOT 56,57,58 and 59. So yes, this was done by the customer.

    I work as a line manager at a home depot. SCOT stands for self check out, and the 57 is the register number. When you use a proxy or any commercial card, it prompts for a PO number. It is then entered by the customer onto the touch screen. This customer is obviously a “cock sucking faggot” as he entered it by himself. Nice try there buddy…

    correction: 58 is the register number. sorry! this is a real receipt, BTW(there are some security features visible on the receipt)

    This looks shopped. I can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few shops in my time.
