Borg

I have been working as a cashier since last July, its not bad. I did just
to stay busy while our house was being built. I think your experience will
depend mostly on your co-workers and your managers. Good Luck if you do it.

It's slang for Home Depot. Takes after the Borg in Star Trek with the boxlike
buildings and the assimilation and destruction of small hardware stores. Other
folks have more recently come up with other meanings for it.

Actually its CYborgs. The CY comes from Cybernetic
(I'm always getting corrected thought I would pass the favor along)

Big Orange Retail Group, Home Depot

Actually any HomeDepot, Lowe's, Menerds type store that runs the mom and pop
businesses out of business. Taken from the Siborgs on Star Trek.. IIRC
they would assimilate and assume the identity of others and multiply.

I think I'm about to take a side job there. I guess that means I will be
assimilated.

Oddly enough, the assistant manager at the local BORG is the husband of the
department manager I worked under (no pun here) at the Sears store I just
quit. And just so you know, I didn't sell tools there, just the crappy lawn
and garden equipment.

Big Orange Retail Giant (Home Depot)

This can also apply to Lowe's, Wal-Mart, etc...

It's a big place that assimilates all who enter.
