So that stereotype about Mexicans hanging around Home Depot looking for jobs.. oh god. I didn't think it was COMPLETELY serious until I just witnessed it myself. Holy shit. There had to be like.. 50 Mexicans.

Dad said they usually hang around all day ):

I never heard of such a thing. Though, I'm surpirsed it's not Walmart that they hang out at x.x;

[chuu]

Why Wal-mart? Home Depot is where they could do hard manual labor which is what a majority of immigrants are used to.

Ah, that does make some sense though. Home Depot also offers health benefits for part timers.

[chuu]

I'm pretty sure they would get paid under the table and not for being part timers.

ffffff. just be glad they don't hit on you when you're walking around Home Depot. I fucking hate them. Mom told me that some lady was trying to sue some group...I forget in which state because they were harassing the women there.

....wow xD;

In our area, the Home Depot and Lowes try to keep them away, so they wind up in the parking lot of a shopping center that I go to for fabrics. One town over though the Home Depot has tons of them.
Sadly I've found that most stereotypes about Mexicans are true. D: especially the one about them having really loud parties with polka music playing all night...my mom's neighbors do it more than once a week.

[chuu]

We've had parties like that |D

lol and I like how you called it Polka music. It reminds me of circus music personally.

[holyheat]

I've always heard it referred to as Mexican polka in my area, although I definitely get why you'd think it sounds circus-like!

I'd never heard of said steretype either |D
