"Hmm, our focus group revealed that showing the 'home owner' having to wear PPE made them think the work was dangerous. So lose the PPE for the ads."

More like the focus group thought the masks were “super gay fauci shit” so home depot went with “guy wearing $2 safety glasses that don’t even have a dust seal”
Which is stipid, cause it’s one of those things that isn’t dangerous if you take the right precautions…like riding a bike with a helmet.
That sounds extremely plausible.

There's more, this guy is a rebel.
This dudes hands in the end of the day

Modern mineral wool is actually way better than that. I recently bought and installed some that was advertised as “really soft” and without gloves or masks, at the end of the day I couldn’t feel an itch. Of course good airflow during installation always makes a huge difference. I would 100% wear a mask in an attic though.
there's also a massive difference in mineral wool and fiberglass. i'll take working with mineral wool/rock wool over fiberglass any day
"Well, it seems his lungs are completely filled with Owens Corning fiberglass insulation. One third of his body weight is Owens Corning fiberglass insulation. But don't worry, he won't burn in hell... thanks to all that Owens Corning fiberglass insulation."
Stop the liberal anti wallcandy propaganda. It feels so good to eat the wall candy. It tastes exactly like cotton candy but it's available in my walls and my mattress
After all, if it wasn't delicious, why would they dye it that delicious pink?!?
I remember often playing in construction sites as a kid, and we once found a roll of fiberglass. we just decided to sit on it and play with it (I found it funny how it tickled my skin) 😭😭
Home Depot taking a stand against Woke masks.
Or some other stupid shit.
Why would I shop at Home Depot if I didn't think guys with perfectly chiseled jaws and manicured nails worked there?
Description like that, someone may think you're looking for some Proud Boys.
His neck isn't nearly beardy enough.
Ads disguising themselves as regular posts (e.g. the "LPT") is bad. It gets worse when someone screenshots and reposts the ad, presumably even for free. But why does the R****t ad make it all the way to Lemmy!??
I'm glad people are talking about what a bullshit trash hole of an ad platform that site is. but it definitely would be funny if OP blacked out the brands in the image just out of spite
In this case its more like an anti-ad once OP posted it here, as its showing the incompetence of the company.
"noooooo!! all pr is good pr!!!!"
It’s ok, you can say Reddit.
just don't use the hard R
Can't figure out if that would we ahddit or weddit.

It's not that they don't want to sell it to you, it's just they don't want to force you to wear protective equipment, so your employer can cheap out on it.
Also isn't Home Depot one of those very christian corpos in the US? If yes, then there's also a non-zero chance they think wearing protective equipment is "gay".
Folks, is staying alive gay?
fellas is it gay to not die
One of the founders is a hardcore Trump guy, but he's not part of the company anymore. The company itself splits its donations between Democrats and Republicans. (That's one of the tricks of a two party system. You can split your donation in half and win either way.)
They're not overly Christian the way Jimmy Johns or Chick-fil-A are.
Boomers hate using safety gear.
But they'll be dead soon so nbd
lights a dart, inhales: "Don't be a pussy, kid"
Single use plastics meet single use workers.
It's because they think being dumb makes them tough.
