Are you one of those morons who complains when you can't get help to carry your 36" TV to your Cadillac and then complain because you can't get help - often because the guys who could help are out chasing carts all over the neighborhood? You probably also bitch as if it's their fault when it is too big for the trunk - and expect the emplyess to help you tie it down. I bet you also bitch because you can't get service inside the stores. There is plenty of work to be done at K-mart. Nobody has time to chase down carts - or help assholes who can't help themselves.

Damn dude...lighten up. If I want help carrying a gallon of milk I will ask for it. I don't care what the people are doing. I am the customer and I wanrt help. If they can't provide it I will go to a higher end store and pay more for that service.

I buy my stuff, I use their cart to move it to my car. AFter that I leave their cart in their parking lot so they can get it.

Send some 17 y.o. kid out every hour to spend 10 minutes getting carts, no big deal. AT the same time he can be patrolling the parking lot picking up garbage.

[sarcasm]Oh noes you are telling me there is no designated cart boy, and that its a god damn travesty that any employee must do a job other than the one that he is hired to do.[/sarcasm]

So what? I work at a Walgreens, I'm a cashier, photoguy, stocker, and yes sometimes I'm even sent outside to bring in the carts.

We could probably use an extra stocker on most days, it would certainly help get all the extra things like stocking, cleaning up the store, and whatever else done faster, but like I said most places will try to get by with the minimum ammount of employees possible to get the job done.

It has nothing to do with the customers making more of a mess, althought there are certain customers who are complete asshats, I dont however think carts in the parking lot is a big deal, even for the bigger grocery stores, they surely can hire an extra person if it is that much of an issue.

That is the epitome of laziness. You can push the cart to your car, you can push it back to the store. It is their for your convenience and you take is as some sort of entitlement - then expect a store owner to increase his payroll just to handle lazy fuckers? Guess what - no owner / manager can afford that, so you just make more work for everyone else.

Walgreens are small. You have obviously have NO CLUE how out of control carts get at a larger store, or you would think differently - bacause you would never have time to be the "cashier, photoguy, stocker" and you would have to come back from pushing carts to deal with a line of pissed off customers wanting to pick up their photos and blaming you for not being there (while leaving their cart in the lot next to their car as they drive off!).

Trust me, as a consumer I help pay for everything the store uses. The store is there for my convenience, the workers are there for my convenience..everything is there for my convenience...THAT'S WHY I SHOP THERE

Have you ever run a business? Most buisiness know what they have to do to stay running. Super markets pay someone extra to butcher meat so it is more convenient for me then cutting it at home.

I have never worked minimum wage except for a campus job I had in college. It is easier not to call people assholes when it does not apply to them.

Basic human courtesy goes a long way.

For your information, I worked at Lowes while putting myself through school. That was 8 years ago. I still think people that leave carts in parking lots are assholes. I did before that job, and I do now. I also think the same about people who talk crap about people in "lower" lines of work than themselves.

I think you miss understand me.

As a customer who is spending money at someones store I will ask for help when I want it. Usual;ly you have to wait and thats okay. But if a store stops deciding to help me, or take shopping carts away because they don't want to spend the money to have someone get them I will just shop somewhere else. If I have to pay more so be.

I can only assume that you worked somewhere where other someone else covered your bagger duties in your absence. It sucks to bust your ass in a parking lot for an hour only to return to customers cussing you out because they were looking for you. After 5-6 times a day for a couple of months, it starts to get old.

Yeah? So what 9245?

As a manager I had 26 people under me all with lists like that and it was my job to make sure they got those lists done.

One thing I learned BTW whenb I managed people. If you give them a list of 10 things to get done they might get to 7 of them. But if you give them a list of 20 things to get done they will accomplish even more than 10 of those things.

SO almost always I gave my workers more jobs then they could handle.

Littering is illegal. Stealing is illegal. You are both taking something the store provided for you and not giving it back - and leaving it out in the open as junk.

To carry that further, should you be able to just remove your stuff from the plastic bags from Wal-mart, and let the bags go off into the breeze? After all, the store could hire people to chase them down all day - even install a big net on the leeward side of the lot! Is that where our entitlement minded society is headed?

In Germany the carts have a padlock and chain. You put in a coin, a Mark if I remember right - about a buck, in the lock and the chain disconnects from the next cart. When you are done you take the cart back, plug the chain into another cart, and get your coin back. The chain was designed so you can't plug into your own cart. So if you don't take your cart back it costs you a buck.

When I have about a peck of harvested pit hair, I spin it into yarn and crochet the ankle socks I wear with my Teva sandals. I try to be respectful of the environment and of others, so when I find a cart in the parking lot, I tie it to the bumper of my Volvo with natural hemp rope and tow it along until I find a homeless person who needs it.

I never said I couldn't push a cart to a designated place. I just don't care to. But you feel free to do do what the store that you don't even work for tells you to do. I wont try to change your mind.

Litter is "stuff" OUT OF PLACE.

A cart in a store is not litter. A cart in a corral is not litter. A cart in a parking space, where it can hit another car - IS LITTER, just as much as a cart left in a ravine by some homeless guy.

Borrowing a durable good from a store and not returning it to the designated return location is stealing.

I have no doubt that most places have a janitor that will flush the toilet if he finds it unflushed - does that mean you should leave it that way "because he is paid to do it?" What else do you expect people to do for you? Can you believe some people actually change their kids diapers and leave the dirty diapers in the carts they leave in the parkig lot? Yes, the store will clean it up - but SHOULD THEY HAVE TO?

Where does it end? By your logic, you could just dump all of your trash in the Wal-mart parking lot because eventually someone will come along and clean up after you. After all, "they're paid to do that."

your right there was, i worked for a guy that was very old school. He hired enough people to do every needed job and treated everyone well. He made a fricken killing dooing it too$$$.

As for the customers , pffff i usually just them blow off. I knew as long as i did my job as i was instructed to the boss would always be in my corner.

I noticed that 2 voted for parking in handicapped spots. Those who do that are the epitome of laziness, assininity, and discourtesy.

The thing about the carts in the lot is not just about being lazy, it is also about common courtesy. I bet you would get upset if a loose cart, left there by some other discourteous, lazy asshole, hit your car. Given that, don't do it to other people.

Damn, why is that so hard to fathom?

Quoted:
In Germany the carts have a padlock and chain. You put in a coin, a Mark if I remember right - about a buck, in the lock and the chain disconnects from the next cart. When you are done you take the cart back, plug the chain into another cart, and get your coin back. The chain was designed so you can't plug into your own cart. So if you don't take your cart back it costs you a buck.

The added bonus is, that if someone leaves their cart in the lot, you can return it and get THEIR money back to! It is sad, but that may be what things have to come to, since common courtesy is not so common.

I am a lazy asshat who leaves thier cart in the parking lot, I don't hunt my own food either, I can afford to pay others to do both tasks for me.

You pay someone to take your cart back for you?

Where does it end? By your logic, you could just dump all of your trash in the Wal-mart parking lot because eventually someone will come along and clean up after you. After all, "they're paid to do that."

Actually I thought the discussion at hand was carts in the parking lot, therefore I thought that was where the end was. That was my logic.

It seems that your logic however has no bounds, and you will attempt to apply examples of one situation on any concievable other situation possible.

Its not my logic, thats your logic.

Yeah? So what 9245?

As a manager I had 26 people under me all with lists like that and it was my job to make sure they got those lists done.

One thing I learned BTW whenb I managed people. If you give them a list of 10 things to get done they might get to 7 of them. But if you give them a list of 20 things to get done they will accomplish even more than 10 of those things.

SO almost always I gave my workers more jobs then they could handle.

depending on the work it's stuff like that causes an increase in work place boo-boo's, turn around and gets ohsha and the union's breathing down your neck.
