it would appear that Home Depot is willing to work with the government =
even though it does not  want to buy from them.

The euphemism "work with" means, if the press release is read carefully,
take a corporate handout.  Home Depot is opening a new store every 47
hours.  The federal government, using our tax dollars,  has agreed
through the Employment and Training Administration of the Labor
Department to provide free recruitment, screening, and training services
to Home Depot free of charge so the company can staff the new stores it
is opening every two days.  It seems the company wants the freebies from
the federal government but it aggressively avoids the laws that make
America a place where so many can succeed, including people with
disabilities, and assist those that have put their lives on the line to
advance the institution of American Freedom around the world.
