Okay, I’ll keep this one short. I went to the grocery store the other night to (obviously) buy some groceries. As I pull into my parking spot, I notice there’s a shopping cart propped off to the side up in the median/planter in front of me. A quick glance to my right reveals a shopping cart corral right next to me . Are you kidding me? This person couldn’t walk the extra twelve feet to put the shopping cart in the corral, yet had the energy to push it to the median, between cars, and prop it up on to the curb? This boggles my mind. Did you not see the cart corral one parking space over?
What’s amazing is that this is not the only time or place I have seen this. Go to almost any parking lot and you will find shopping carts strewn about like empty beer cans in a frat house. That is, of course, assuming the shopping cart retriever and his trusty cart-pushing robot haven’t come by to pick them up.
Is it really that difficult and out of your way to put something back once you’re done using it? Wasn’t that something your mother thought you when you were a kid? It’s not like there’s only one cart corral in the entire lot, is there? They’re scattered liberally throughout the parking lot.
