I'm annoyed that Home Depot made me add $1 of gas to the van I rented
Why would you be angry with Home Depot?
It's petty nickel and diming from them.
Yeah, nickel and diming is one thing that would make me want to stop using a company. I hate that with a passion.
Shit now I know. They can get away with all the shitty things.
I think you might be right that they can get away with stuff like this if they are the only company in the area. It is annoying, but maybe you can find other places to rent equipment from.
