Ha, definitely unclear. The presumption is it’s a person with a handicap who left it there. I know I’ve seen some older folks leave them at the end of the spaces and so I guess I’m more inclined to let slide someone who perhaps has some infirmity that makes walking difficult.
Interestingly I’ve read handicapped individuals prefer there to be a cart next to the handicap parking space. Save having to walk inside before getting a shopping cart that doubles as a walker.
Makes sense in my mind, could be bs though. I certainly haven’t done a study.
Yeah, my husband had cerebral palsy and loved when people left carts in the handicap areas. He’d grab that and use that to walk around the store instead of a cane.
Trust me when I say, they don’t need an unnecessary amount of work to do. They already get the shit end of the stick by bagging, getting carts, helping patrons, and anything else no one wants to do, but they’re usually only in that rough of a spot because management refuses to hire additional baggers to help. The more we can do to help them, the less that’s on their plate.
If you got a legit reason to not return your cart, then no problem. But if you can return it to a carroll (spelling?), you should!
You give people a pass for ditching carts in the handicapped spaces?

Jesus Christ, I’m out here disenfranchising the disabled.
Haha, it never dawned on me until someone else said it to me.
One of those things that seems obvious in hindsight.
As long as you don’t dismember them
You just can’t win in this thread, can you?
This whole chain was a roller coaster!

Or a handicap person leaving it there. I don’t care I put it back but if people don’t who cares. Give the cart person something to do.
