Office Depot

Lots of red shirts standing around doing NOTHING, while one person works. 5 people waiting to print documents not a freaking sole to help. Worthless just bleeping worthless. I’m out.

I work in the area and come here to make business purchases. I am always greeted by someone when I walk in and asked if I need help finding anything. I tell them what I’m there for, and they tell me where to get it. Every time! And I never wait in line to check out either. I should note that I generally only come here on weekdays during business hours, but overall I feel this is the best place to shop for all my work and office supplies.

My printer recently broke and I haven’t gotten around to purchasing a new one mostly because I haven’t had a need for one since I’m done with school :)
BUT since graduating I’ve had to do grown-​up things like print resumes and apply for my license thus my recent visits to Office Depot.
The staff has been extremely helpful. On one visit I was trying to make a copy of my diploma so I could apply for my license but my diploma was too big to copy :(BUT then one of the employees suggested I take it a picture of my diploma with my phone and then email it to her, so she could print it. Duh! Why didn’t I think of that? She was great and I was able to get everything copied for my license application.
Before my recent visits I didn’t know that Office Depot had computers setup so you can print from them which is fantastic. So on one occasion I pulled up a document that need to be printed from my email and the other time from my USB. It was a great printing experience.

I am a big online shopper, Amazon literally takes about 40% of my income yearly. I just can’t help looking at stuff, seeing the reviews, and comparing the prices. So I rarely shop in physical stores anymore, but I had a photoshoot on this side of town and had brought the wrong sized paper.
My agreement was for 5x7s but for some reason the previous email chain stated 8×10 so that’s what I brought. When my client told me how many people would be coming I knew this misstep would cost me and I would rather lose a bit on the marked up paper than run out of ink and look like an idiot or worst, not run out of ink but just use more ink and cut into my profits anymore.
So thanks Office Depot for still being around for emergencies!
