Home Depot meets K-Tel

And pain ensues. Further proof that comedy and corporate training videos just don't mix.


Though I have to admit that their update of "If I Had A Hammer" is enough to make Pete Seger go bonkers, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

as far as bad corporate videos go, that is pretty damn good. the puns are corny, but tight...the camera setups are good, the parody is well executed.....BUT i wouldn't want to have to sit in the breakroom with 5 other people and be made to watch it.

you should have seen the sexual harassment videos we used to have to watch at united artist's theaters. i wonder if they are on youtube?

Just one more reason to bemoan HomeBase folding and to keep patronizing Lowe's. The thing gives me that same nauseous feeling that came over me while watching that 40s era US Army training film on how not to get VD.

This looks positvely good compared to Microsoft's "Bossy" entry in this field: http://gizmodo.com/380467/internal-microsoft-vista-video-is-as-painful-as-videos-get
