I've always wanted to make a list of the things in life that bug me. Now is my chance!
First: What is it with those self-centered, arrogant, screw-thre-rest-of-the-world attituded people.....you know....the ones who can go into a store, get a shopping cart, push it all over the store, fill it up, push it out the door all the way to their parked car but then cannot return it to the designated "Return Carts Here" place?
They just leave it blocking someone elses parking spot, or push it in front of their car and shorten up the available space for another person. Is is so hard to push the same cart they pushed around for 45 minutes another 1 minute and get it back to where it belongs?
I beleive that this is an indication of the pathetic state our society has fallen to. It isn't about anyone else nowdays...it's all about me.....after all "I'm worth it!" Used to be people helped others....cared about them or at least the quality of life that we all share. We used to look out for each other and do even something as insignificant as pushing a shopping cart out of another person way to make their experience of parking/shopping a little less frustrating.
I'm starting to get a little preachy......ain't I? More later!

Sometimes it takes 20 mins to get to speak to someone, that's 20 mins of my time and my money.

I'm glad it's not just me that doesn't fit into a category.
As for shopping carts, make them put a coin in to get one and they won't get it back until they return it. Works fine here in the UK.
