I went into this place on recommendation from a neighbour for home renovation materials. I own a drywall business and had never been here before. They have an impressive amount of stuff but it seems very few people who work there know where anything is. I used them last week to buy some materials but witnessed the owner, apparently a man named Blair, come out of his office and yell at a young lady working ringing through my purchases. I could tell the girl was a new employee but had provided me with excellent customer service from the time I walked in to the time I left. This owner, who looked like he hadn't slept in days and smelled of alcohol came right into her face and hollered at her about some sort of PO or something unrelated to my purchase. I didn't mind waiting as she could not continue the transaction until he was finished his rant, and then he gave ME, who had just spent nearly $1000 on materials, a dirty look like I was an inconvenience. Then some other guy who I assume to be a manager came and told her she was doing my invoice wrong. She asked why and all he did was roll his eyes and walk away. Another girl rushed to help this young lady and told her she was doing fine and that both men were in bad moods so she shouldn't take it personally. I thought she had done a great job; as she was helping me locate what I needed, I saw these two "managers" sitting at an order desk drinking coffee and talking. All in all, I felt very uncomfortable and this poor girl was, understandably, fighting back tears. Home Depot and other stores don't offer as much inventory or prices quite as low, but after seeing how this employee and I imagine others were treated, I will never go back. I hope this young lady does not put up with what I saw was verbal abuse from 2 people who are supposed to be professional, not raging mean men. A small discount is not worth it. I did take a business card, so if R. Blair Cunningham or Bart Mc reads this, I think you should re-think your management style. You do not scream at employees or anyone in a business, it makes everyone involved uncomfortable, and again, this young lady found me everything I needed in 10 minutes and had it loaded by some labour guys into my truck but I left feeling just awful, wondering how her and other employees are able to work for such a loose cannon. As a business owner/ contractor myself I have spread the word that this company does not deserve business, and like myself, I know a lot of guys who will not go there now because of this. Going to a few different places and paying a few extra bucks is preferable to realizing you are putting money into the pocket of a "businessman " who has no regard for professional or good management practice, and I hope this young lady as well as the other girl who comforted her stand up for their right of being treated with respect in the workplace. Also, this young lady, I own Edmonton Drywall and left my card with the others, if you ever need a job I would be happy to hire you at my company. No stars out of 5 read more
