    Before college I worked at a grocery store and initially I bagged groceries and gathered the carts

    I always wonder if this meme is put out there by some penny pinching Kroger executive trying to justify paying off more of their bottom line workers.

    My perception though is of a small grocery store with like 20 carts max and gathering up wasn’t a big deal…having seen how many the guys at Costco pull at once looks pretty rough on the other hand

      What is it with every regional grocery store being owned by right winged pricks? Like I moved from a publix dominated area to a Kroger one and it just saddens me that there are no ethical alternatives outside of becoming a homesteader and growing my own food.

      Edit; who’s out here shilling for billion dollar corpos?

      no it’s because I’m sick and fucking tired of having to dodge carts all over the place because some lazy Karen thinks they’re too important to walk 50 more feet
