    It’s hard to believe that a reddit post about being able to tell if someone is a decent person based on whether or not they put a shopping cart away has stuck around as long as it has. It’s a pretty arbitrary metric.

      My hot take is that there’s an assumption that the employees don’t want to go waaaaayyyyy out to get the carts.

      When I worked at whole foods, I loved the outfield carts. I got to get away from the all seeing eye of management for a little bit, sometimes see a sunset, get to breathe some fresh air- and I’d take my time and just say “man, the carts are far out today” if asked.

      I know not everyone is like me, but not everyone is unlike me either.

      Sometimes I still take a cart to the furthest possible space to give the poor cart worker a damn break.
