AIBU to not put my trolley away?

AIBU to not put my trolley away?

In my local, large, Tesco they employee people to do this. They generally have at least one person a day on this in the busy hours. I know this, I visit daily, have knowledge etc. This is fact.

It is a low wage job I expect, but it keeps those who will or can do it for what ever reasons in a job with a wage.

So AIBU to never put my trolley back thinking I'm helping keep them in work.

NB. I never leave it a car park space, just on the path.

I love the posts which go "AIBU" "Yes!" "fuck you I am not"

An another note YABU - for many reasons people have stated. When people say bollocks like they leave trolley in a 'safe place' when they're in a rush, why not just take an extra 10 seconds to take it to the trolley bay? There's plenty of them in any supermarket. The HV can wait 10 seconds! Is it worth risking damaging someone else's car, or do you just not care?

Well rather than it being in a 'safe place', it's actually a safe place, like on the other side of the bollards from any car parking area.

If it was 10 seconds to the trolley bay yes I would do it. It's often not that close at all.

Yes leaving it to roll around freely in the car park is inconsiderate and stupid and I wouldn't do that.

Trolleys can still get between 2 bollards in a sudden gush of wind. Or do you tell it to "stay" Wink

Surely you wouldn't have a clue if it rolls around once you're long gone? Trolleys bays are never too far away people are talking like they have to walk half a mile! Sorry but I think there's no excuse it's so lazy and inconsiderate!
