I haven't posted on this site in over a year, mainly because I'm not working in retail anymore (WIN!) But anyway, I was at the local Wal-Mart the other day, and it was very windy. I was exiting the store, and I passed a woman unloading her cart of crap into the back of her SUV. When she was done unloading, she simply left the cart in the lot, and started to walk to her driver's-side door.
The following conversation ensued:
Me: You should put that cart in the cart return. It is very windy.
SC: ::cattbuttface:: They have employees here to gather the carts. I don't have to do that.
Me: ( realizing this rare chance to tell off an SC): Well fine, but how would you feel if a cart slammed into your car because some f***ing idiot was being lazy and didn't return the cart to the corral?
SC: F*** you. If you care so much, you should bring the cart back.
Me: I will, and I'll be so careful to not have the cart somehow fly toward your precious SUV while I do it. (yes, I actually said that.)
At that point, she jumped into her car and sped off. I was about to get the cart, but the moment I walked toward it (mind you, the cart was 15-20 ft away from me), the wind picked up, and the cart went at 500 mph down the lot, running into a parked truck. I saw an obvious dent. I decided to just leave, because I didn't get the lady's license plate number, and I know the employees at the Wal-Mart would simply not care.
EDIT: Oops, I posted this in the wrong forum...that's what not posting here in a while does to you.
