Snow and ice were the worst because the carts wouldn't move very well and the little machine they gave us to help didn't work at all.

I pushed carts at a supermarket (i worked front end so I did bagging, returning overstock, cleaning, whatever else too) and yeah carts is less annoying than bagging if the weather is good, but like they wouldn't let us wear shorts so in the summer it was brutal.

Heat was bad. We had yellow jackets in the trashcans next to the cart stalls all the time. People would just throw their chewing tobacco against the wall and ground everywhere and leave used baby diapers in the carts. One time I found a bag of 20+ used anal beads. This one guy used to bring his hunting kills and dress them in the parking lot, so there'd just be a mountain of rotting fox or deer guts there.

clearly the most moral thing to do with shopping carts is to steal them and make the employees solve a series of riddles in order to get them back

Carts *are* an excellent determinant of morality: if you think putting the cart back or not matters in a moral sense you are clearly too loving stupid for philosophy, a field no stranger to dipshits. A cart return implies the existence of the grocery store, which is in and of itself an immoral organization of society under capitalism. And if you want to look at such a small, pointless thing and blow it up because you can make a difference in your individual actions to make yourself feel better... well, liberalism is a form of philosophy.

They used to let RV's and trucks overnight in the back Wal-Mart parking lots. They didn't always hit the drain when they were emptying their toilets. You have to get prior approval from the manager to do that now.

I don't use shopping carts, I only have a bike for transport so my stuff all comes and goes in my panniers I believe this places me squarely at true neutral in this alignment chart we are hashing out here, with respect to shopping carts

Here in perverted europe, we deposit a coin in the shopping carts, to be returned when it is placed back. Make of it what you will

i maliciously return the carts until eventually the returned carts extend out into the parking lot and increase the likelihood of an accident turn the cart sideways the instant it crosses the line into the cart corral

I’ll return the shopping cart if I’m not in a rush, it makes some poor kids day slightly easier and if they want more time outside they can simply lie and tell their manager that shopping carts were all over the place

Returning the cart seems to me to be the same as the question of whether you wrap up broken glass before you throw it in a trash bag. Thinking of the next person who has to deal with that issue is how I've always viewed it. If a trash collector grabbed a trash bag of mine that had broken glass just sitting loosely in it they could hurt themselves so I will always wrap broken glass in something like cardboard and tape it off so there's less chance of the next person getting injured. Similarly, returning the cart is you thinking of the next person who has to deal with collecting the cart, or, thinking of wind grabbing the loose cart and slamming it into someone else's car. If you simply return it to the stall you are doing the next person a favor, or, potentially saving another person's car from getting damaged. Think outside of yourself?

returning the shopping cart is class solidarity comrades. if you think otherwise you will be summarily executed.
