Most Home Depot employees at my local store were very knowledgeable for a while, but the construction market is so crazy here (Colorado) that anyone with that knowledge can make at least double what Home Depot will offer.
That said, my local store still does have a few knowledgeable people, but they tend to work morning shifts. I've learned to drop in before work if I have any DIY-type questions.
