My name is Jason, i've gotten two hours of sleep and this messed me up. Not sure why, I don't even drive
theheebs25
Fuck Jason
Demauscian
I even push it into the cart in front, and if only one is out of place I'll move it too.
Geracht
Walking is painful for me. Every step hurts. If I can't park close to the thing, I'll put it out of the way, but can't return it.
Jgigglez
If you park bad,next to me have fun with shopping carts blocking your way to your car.if I'm feeling extra bitchy ill dinv your door
JayNew15
As a guy named Jason, fuck that Jason.

LittleRedRidingAndTheHood
Hold up, I didn't do this! I had to collect the damn things when I worked in retail, so I always return my carts

Please stop taking our jobs. - Lamar Jones, Cart Wrangler's Local #354.

I usually leave it in the entryway for the next person
01001111oo
Or the asshat that leaves it next to your car.
NVGoddesscottage
We use wheelchair parking at Whole Foods. You're already wearing jogging clothes, WTF don't leave your cart in the striped area! Jerk.
Jmath333
As a fellow Jason, Im also disappointed, you bring shame to our name!
DiastaticPower
Jason Mathregues I assume.
dthninja2
Fuckin' Jason!
KawaiiPotatoGirl
Fuck you, Jason!
ChaniKynes
If I have kids in the car I'm not walking that sicker half a mile away. Sorry. I will try to park near a stall though.
Everyone's got their excuses. I have kids, and I always put carts away.
Gold star for you. I live in birmingham and kids have gotten taken in cars. So whatever your priorities are dude.
berry0205
My Mom mentioned to me she hated when people didn't return their carts. Been returning faithfully ever since
lifeisadadjoke
As a Jason that worked front-end, I've never left a cart "out there". Screw your blanket Jason statement asshole!
JackCornsby
I usually grab a cart on the way in, so it evens out.
If it evened out, there wouldn't be a shit ton of derelict carts in the parking lot.
ImProbablyCommentingToInsultSomething
This is coming up a lot. As a cart retriever, it only helps if you put it in the return closest to the building. Otherwise, big whoop.
I'd rather you leave a cart in the street near the building than in the return farthest away.
Isidarth
Mostly it's a matter of not leaving them free to run into people's cars. Remember that you are getting paid to walk out there for them. :D
maltwaterhopsyeast
God Dammit Mr. Noodle!
becauseracevan
I never understood why so many people do this. It's such a disrespectful thing to do and there are zero excuses for it.
StandAgainstTyranny
Work as a cart grabber, sometime. You'll see. It's the only escape you have to the outside for a few minutes. Break-room-only for breaks. BS
Your job can't be that hard. Man and/or woman the fuck up, and do what you're paid to do.
Then if you want to work outside perhaps find a job that lets you do that like landscaping. No one is forcing you to work as a cart grabber.
itwasbuilticame
This. This right here is why more countries need the death penalty.
antoonz
I love the shopping cart return repost bc everyone puts their own spin on it.
Hurryupmeow
Had a dude look me in the eye and push it down a hill when I used to push carts. I was so in shock that I didn't know what to say
"Joke's on you, brojob, now I get to be outside more! Hahaha!"
lHaveAConfession
I work at a grocery store. I'd use it as an excuse to blow a minute or two
NachoPete
He established dominance.
TurtIeproof
I kicked over a shopping cart during a windstorm to keep it from careening into someone's car. Some ass asked, "Are you on drugs!"
"I have PTSD, what's your excuse, asshole?"
LokiKingOfJotunheim
I watched someone parked right next to the cart return not walk around their car to return their cart...
Conflict
(2) right behind her until she put it away. She was mad.
I was parked right next to the return, lady on the other side was gonna leave her cart so I backed out of my spot and put my car in park
GoodB1tch
Yeah Jason, you pussy ass bitch.
Sarahsmomhasgotitgoingon
Jason you ignorant slut
I'm Jason and I literally work in a grocery store and put carts back where they belong
Tootiespewpew
Fun times. At least you get to be outdoors which is a perk.
Lurch1911
I used to be a courtesy clerk at Safeway, scattered carts during the summer was amazing! I got to spend forever out in the sunshine!
NuggetsForKitty
My first job here in Kansas. 110 degrees all summer. I quit after 2 weeks. 0/10 will never do again even if starving.
MayTheTriforceBeWithU
I used to have the same job in Washington. We'd stack as many carts as possible and race them. Did your Safeway play biscuit toss?
It's where you take uncooked biscuits and toss them at the ceiling. The longest to stick up there wins.
I witnessed them stick up there for days. I'd be walking though the store and all of the sudden rancid bread doe would rain from the ceiling
Never played that! But now I have to!
Sulkie
You must live somewhere with mild summer temperatures...
It was back in high school, lived in homer Alaska
That explains it, Alaska summers are supposed to be lovely :P It's not fun to corral carts in Arizona summers. Hot temps AND hot carts.
Yeah I gotta say fuck that, I'd turn cherry red in a minute.
PoppinLochNessHopster
As ex-retail, one of my only respites for the day was going out to collect carts, please leave those fuckers as far away as you can.
Eldibs
I leave the carts out, but only at chain stores and I avoid putting them in the way of parking. I want someone to get paid collecting them.
DancesWithPibbles
Yes! Me too! Plus... now I'm lazy and don't want to walk the cart back okay?
daMinz
When i was shopping i let all of my retail job rage out on this guy that pushed his cart away from the carousel towards people entering.
shyriath
I can see that, if it's a break from the rest of your day there. For those of us whose jobs were almost entirely pushing carts... yeahno.
NeynasGhost
Depends on region/store size. It's really inconvenient in inhospitable weather or smaller businesses with fewer employees.
dirrrtypiratehookerrr
I always assume this, so..... yeah
TheOneGalen
As someone who has worked multiple shifts as a cart attendant, hell no.
fedoraeuphoria
HAHAHA I loved cart duty. Gave me an excuse to be unsupervised for an hour. Just leave them in or around the corrals.
Gover57
agreed. Now they have those electric pusher machines too. I pushed 83 carts once while another guy steered.
Shit, with manual they told us to stop at 10 carts, must have pushed 50 at a time back.
It was back in the 90's - there were fewer rules then. Also did garden centre - moved whole skids of soil with manual pumpjacks.
Tornadotaco
Same experience back in the day. I try to explain it to people, but they still think I'm an ass if I don't bring it back
messiemillie
Yeah, when I worked in retail, I didn't really care which demeaning task I did, I still got paid the same.
Carts = no customer interaction. Followed by getting ice out of the freezer to cool down. Only good part of my day
archaeo90
I did that at Kroger, but our lot was on a hill and it was summer so it fucking sucked.
Waterman9812
Mine was downhill back to the store. Before the ropes. Had to run to the front to catch one before flying off and hitting a car.
I'd tell people to apply the common sense clause, if it's mid-winter or summer/in a fucking ravine then fuck off.
SweetGeekling
As the owner of a vehicle that has been hit by stray carts, please put that shit away.
lol get rekt nerd
I mean, put it in the furthest spot you can, but make sure it won't run away!
SheDevilinaSnuggie
I almost fought a granny over this. Windy day. Just pushed it away from her car. I told her off. She called me rude! Whatacunt.
IamJustinSane
Not as much fun in a Canadian winter when it's -40 out and you're pushing them through a foot of snow.
drinkALLthemilk
Can confirm :(
albaboss
Or in southern Louisiana at 98 degrees and 88% humidity
That's a Canadian summer, so we're fucked all year. It's almost October and it was 95 today and 83% humidity.
qwermmm
Or in 110 degree Texas summer heat with not a cloud in sight
Please dont. I park at the far end to avoid getting hit by those carts. I dont care about how it gives you an excuse to be less productive.
How about we don't care that you might have to walk a little further or get a tiny ding on your car? You clearly have never worked retail.
Just to give the worker an excuse to stay longer. (2/2)
Why not? If a job needs doing, and it takes a while, that's the brakes. Retail stores know this. It's not a secret. They allow it, to degree
I park at the far end of the lot already. What I meant to tell people was please don't leave their carts there on purpose(1/2)
Well you did it in a real bitchy way. I've never just left it in the lot. I make sure it won't roll, but ik how nice it is to get outside.
Well the original comment was saying it in a "go ahead and do it, I don't care if wind comes and pushes a cart into a car parked far away"
Maybe be less of an agoraphobe?
That's the dumbest shit I've heard all day. Agoraphobia is not something you can "maybe be less of," you fucking cockwomble.
Wasn't literally suggesting he "be less of" an agoraphobe, just stating that that parking really far away is a sign of it.
Um...Maybe some people actually care about their cars and don't like parking with all the idiots that couldn't care less about their own car
That's what ya said. And not really. Lots of people do. Sure, a slight, nonessential sign of mildly antisocial behavior, but no...
