Regardless of core responsibilities the carts need to find their way back to the store.  Getting them there requires a certain amount of time each day.  I might split that time between 5, 10, 20 or 100 employees, none of whom have "run carts" as part of their core responsibilities but the amount of labor hours doesn't change.  If I can change the required amount of labor hours by making my customers perform that labor I can reduce the amount of employees I have on duty at any given time.  The employees will have just as much work or more to do because I'll simply reshuffle their duties to account for the labor hours I saved on carts. 

This isn't a debate, you're just plain wrong.  Putting the cart in the corral definitely costs someone a job.  Maybe it would be worth it if Safeway was actually going to reduce the price of your chickie nugs accordingly but they won't.  Your only compensation will be an unfounded but smug sense of superiority

Oh, that kid doesn't know any better.  He thinks his job will be easier if people put the carts away.

Close!

Rationing is for other people to do, like paying taxes or taking your shopping cart back to the corral. I’m different.

Don't get me started on the cart corral!  It's a corporate ploy to trick you into unpaid labor so they can fire employees and pocket the savings.  They're preying on your better nature.  Don't let the oligarchs milk you!


I always take the time to push my cart out to the furthest corner of the lot in solidarity with my fellow workers
