At least Home Depot seems to actually care about its lgbtq employees, and its employee training is full of anti-discriminatory language and policies while being openly welcoming to the lgbtq community. Even here in Florida, Home Depot is a pretty friendly place to work for LGBTQ employees.

Which is interesting considering the owner is a maga.

Edit: I didn't realize he was no longer involved with the company. Jkjk

He isn’t the owner. He was the co-founder, first CEO and then the first chairman, but he retired in 2002. He hasn’t had anything to do with the company since then.

I stand corrected. Thanks for the info!
