Home Depot is worried Millennials are too dumb to know how to use their products.

Home Depot is in full-on panic mode after realizing that an entire generation of Americans have absolutely no clue how to use their products. As the Wall Street Journal points out, the company has been forced to spend millions to create video tutorials and host in-store classes on how to do everything from using a tape measure to mopping a floor and hammering a nail.

Home Depot's VP of marketing admits she was originally hesitant because she thought some of their videos might be a bit too "condescending" but she quickly learned they were very necessary for our pampered millennials.

On the other hand, I've seen many millenials make great use of youtube to learn new things, and fix air conditioners, etc.

At what point do we blame the parents?

Agreed but they have the time to use Youtube to learn... instead of paying a technical handy guy.... manual trade will be a great asset in the futur for salary and society purpose

There are tutorials on YouTube about how to boil water or an egg so a tutorial about how to use a tape measure isn't so bad.
