If you leave your cart in a parking space, you're sub-human
You're passible if you take it to the corral
But a truly good human will stack the carts into proper rows if the carts are loose in the corral
I firmly believe in the validity of the Shopping Cart Test. On a related and depressing note, my little city is overrun with errant shopping carts.
I have a clip from my dashcam floating around somewhere of me stopping, jumping out of my car, then hauling ass to catch someone's runaway cart moments before it hit a parked car. Honestly one of my proudest moments.
On the opposite end, I once left a cart (on a curb) and it haunted me. To be fair, it was absolutely storming outside and I was chilled to the bone and just wanted to warm up..
I push products to the shop floor because some people prefer stacking the shelves to their other work. I'm an altruistic job creator. You're welcome
Isn't that just the parable of the broken window? Somebody ultimately needs to clean the dishes and return the cart - they're not wasted time.
I'm even more altruistic than the lazy shits not wanting to put the cart back since I don't just not do something, I'm actively doing it to benefit their day.
It's not benefiting or harming them either way. Their day is spent and their odds of getting paid are the same.
I'm creating more work for them, if everyone just trashed the stores they'd go in we'd have more people working at the stores. I'm a job creator
You're boosting the GDP!
The exception is the handicapped area. When I drive my 80 something mother, we park in a handicapped spot, and I get out and grab the nearest cart for her. She uses that like a walker to get to the store. When we get back to the car, and she gets in, I leave the cart near the handicapped spots for the next person. I have often seen others do the same thing.
We parked the other day, and there were no carts nearby, so I went and got one for her. She could have made it into the store with just her cane, but she would have been slower, and not as confident.
So leave a cart or two in the handicapped zone. The handicapped folks have already worked out their own system that the normies don't know about or understand. It's a Geezer Thing.
Apparently I'm a truly good human because my organizational autism trait gets triggered. I'm not even annoyed fixing them. It's just satisfying to see them in order.
I do have some caveats for this. As my parents both park in handicap, we've noticed that the cart corrals are super far from the handicap spots and I won't blame someone who already has trouble walking half way down the parking aisle to a corral.
I do tend to take the random carts from the parking lot in to use for shopping when I see them though. No reason to take one of the ones already brought back.
