Review of Carhartt Work In Progress

Disappointment and Age Discrimination.

Disappointment and Age Discrimination.

Carhartt makes outstanding and durable work cloths. I'm nearly a senior citizen and I've wanted to visit the flagship store on Cass Avenue, Detroit for awhile now. I went around 6:00-6:30 PM tonight, Saturday. Its on the Wayne State Campus downtown and I had to drive by several times to wait for a parking space to open. In the store, there were many college age employees. However, they just ignored me. They either talked among themselves or talked with other customers their age... Not about the products but about themselves. I spent 30 min hunting through the disorganized shelves. I took photos of what I think I might look at online. Several young couples came in and the employees immediately conversed with them. Finally, I stood in line to buy clothes but, people kept cutting in front of me so I just left. I was invisible.

If I were young, I might have gotten some assistance. Considering it was a one 2 hours of total drive time, the entire experience was a depressing disappointment and waste of time.

Carhartt, Thanks for your "canned" and most disingenuous response to my review.
