What makes you think he puts the cart away?
What makes you think he ever uses carts?
By definition he doesn't put them away then.
Exactly
Freaking people who leave their carts in a parking spot… Straight to the top of the list!
Over here in Germany using a shopping cart "costs" between 50 Cents and 2 €. You have to put a coin in them to release the chain by which they are attached to eachother. Of course when you return the cart and close the lock you get your coin back.
Little metal plates without monetary value but still the right size are common marketing gifts by companies and organizations yet they still provide mostly the same unconscious effect of "I want my coin back".
Of course there are also people who use little gadgets to unlock the carts without putting anything in but I wouldnt know about such things...
That's one of the things Aldi brought with them when they came over to the US. I've always thought it was a pretty cool idea, though as inflation keeps going the 25-cent lock-in becomes less and less of a motivator. Maybe a good reminder, though.
With how rarely I use cash I need my quarter back so I can use it to get a cart next time.

Want to know a sad irony? The cart returns are usually really far from the handicap spots. Parking is close to the store. But the returns are halfway down the aisle.

So long as politicians are all painted with the same negative brush, there's no room for anyone with a genuine interest in improving things. There are some truly great, caring people in politics working hard to do the right thing. It's not their fault the public keeps voting for assholes.
I've often felt that genuine politicians can't possibly have it easy.
To even get started, step one is getting in bed with social media.
No wonder coal as a fossil fuel isn’t going away. The rich folk get so much during Christmas!
I see Luigi isn't on the naughty list. Based Santa.
Krampus should the entire US healthcare industry.
Forgot the health insurance company CEOs.
Many of my landlords were pretty decent people who actually cared about their tenants tho.
Don't forget how many apartment buildings are owned by corporate landlords though. Western Canada has a huuuge problem with the slumlord billionaires at Mainstreet and others.
The out-of-date data I can find has 35% of BC apartments as investor-owned.
I guess that's likely the difference. With the big company owned apartments you usually deal with a super intendant or building manager instead of the landlord directly. So the renter is seen as a faceless number rather than an actual person to the owners you are paying money to. There's a lack of empathy towards the renter.
There are honest people out there. Unfortunately, it's a drip of water in the ocean.

I would like to add people who don't wipe down gym equipment after using it.
Fucking digesting animals.
I mean, most people are digesting animals, unless they're vegan.
All people are digesting animals because humans are animals who digest food.
Vegans taste the best, because they are grass fed.
Add data peddlers on the list.
CEOs?
Is that what we call a joint venture?
