simple task that often can’t be done properly because 15 people before someone didn’t connect it and eventually after person 40 put it in and the weight surpassed the holding power of a pice of 1 inch angle iron against a single pair of casters, and the train rolls away and smashes a car, now someone is super inconvinenced having to deal with the bullshit insurance procedures that never get you back to where you were before and the staff that there aren’t enough of to keep up get shit they don’t get paid enough to listen to. at least once a week at my store.
Now if you mean people that will specifically take the cart to the two sheds farthest away because they’re the only ones not way over filled then sure. But with the way people over fill them, put other store’s incompatible carts in, put them in sideways or backward leave garbage in the carts, and honestly way more dumb incompetent shit than I could remember, I just can’t see it. As a worker it has been continually way easier to just grab loose ones than redo the fucking mess. As a shopper I can see that all of the sheds are fucked up and everything needs to be removed and reorganized and that putting the cart in will just make it worse, therefore it would be best to place it somewhere it can’t roll away but is easy for one persom to take. In the end reality is too complicated for social theorists I guess.
The shopping cart theory is a test of who lives in imaginary fantasy land where everything is perfect and everything only has a right and a wrong answer and nobody needs to improvise a solution to anything and bad events born of good intentions mixed with utter incompetence also make you a good person.
God damn I just read through this whole thread and people are actually frothing at the mouth about returning shopping carts to corrals. What a sad and pathetic existence to live, where you judge other people so harshly over the most insignificant things.
Lemmy can be really fucking weird about certain topics. People here should probably touch grass more frequently.
One time I got absolutely dog piled because I said Fahrenheit was more practical than Celsius for the weather and stuff. It’s hard to be an American on Lemmy sometimes.
