No, it's a job and you're an entitled prick who thinks it magically happens. Supermarkets where I live make billions. They can definitely afford to pay low skilled workers, of which there are plenty, to do this work.

you're entirely correct, but what people are also missing is: if the weather's nice, getting outside and pushing carts is a welcome break to the fluorescent lights and other drudgery of the store...
anyone who's ever actually worked a retail job will tell you that going outside every once in a while is pretty nice.
picking up trash in the rain sucks, but pushing a cart is leisurely compared to whatever else they'll have you do.

We're definitely on the same side. What many people see as an inconvenience is a job for many. I once had a boss who's first company was a trolley collection company, he started from nothing, worked hard and sold it for $1m in Australia.
