The hubs and I were on our way to the grocery store and randomly the topic of people not putting their shopping carts where they belong came up. We both were on the same page in that a cart should be returned especially if the cart holder is nearby. We both are aware that sometimes there are reasons as to why someone can't but the majority of the time, there really are no excuses. Just plain laziness!
Of course, as we were talking we were watching this lady take her cart and parked it behind her between her van and the car behind her. There was no reason for her to do that when there was a cart holder directly in front of her van and one 3 spots to her left. So this kind of ticked us both off but I was surprised at my hubby's reaction. He took it upon his self and walked to the lady's cart and walked it to the holder without saying a word to her. As he pushed it in the holder with force, he decided to give her a "shame on you" face, again without saying a word. The lady decided to step out her van to shout to him "I did that for a reason, sir" and then "Have a nice day". Ha! My hubby just returned a smirk. I was watching this all from my van and was just cracking up!
Really? What reason could you possibly have for not putting the cart away when 1. the holder was in front of you and beside you and 2. you risked the car behind you to get damaged. She literally could have pushed the cart from her van and it would have gone right in without much effort. It just made no sense.
What are some of your pet peeves?
