Thursday *****fest - 7/7/16

***** (/biCH/): noun, informal. To express displeasure; grumble.

What's on your mind, OH? Incompetent coworkers? Obnoxious neighbors? Clueless significant other? Pissed off by world events? Keeping it inside is unhealthy.

Yes....I am going to complain about shopping carts. Why is it so hard for people to walk 15-20 feet to deliver a shopping cart to the proper storage facility. I don't mind getting them for the elderly and do it all the time, but it drives me crazy to see otherwise healthy people just leave the cart and drive away.

*** I love snoopy in the penalty box, I might have spent a minute or two in my day!

They are much too busy and much too important top put the cart in the coral.  One time I saw this and I jumped out of my car and put the cart behind the driver's car and she hit it pulling out.  I drove off laughing my butt off.

OMG, I would so do that!! (and I think I will next time the opportunity presents itself).

I've been known to yell at people that do stupid things in parking lots... like the guy that was parked in the 'pregnant mommies' spot at our local Kroger years ago when I happened to be pregnant with a young toddler in tow. When I came back out (after asking him in a very cynical tone when he was due), his hood was up and his car wouldn't start. Instant Karma! hahahaha

I don't put them back. I unload my groceries and put my 2 yr old twins in their car seats and I don't wanna leave my car to return a cart 

When my kids were little, I always parked next to a cart return... it was a PIA sometimes, but it worked.

It's hard with little kids!

I don't blame you and can understand, if I was there I would gladly take your cart for you.....

I'll never put the cart in the corral. It's not my job -- they pay someone to do that. Until I'm on the payroll, I won't do it.

I can remember when the grocery store rang up your purchase, bagged the items, and wheeled them out to the car and loaded them for you. Now I have to bag my own most of the time, and often have to scan them myself too. I'll be damned if I'm going to put the carts away as well. 

What's next? Sweeping up?

Really? I don't consider it a job, more common decency to ensure a cart does not bounce off my car, it happens and that really fires me up as I take care of my vehicles.

Our local grocery store in our small town has no cart returns. There is always a bagger there, and he/she (my daughter is the only one that has bagged there! LOL) carries them out. I'm always scrambling for money to tip with!
