You may have lived in White City. You may have bought bread, or milk, or green beans at a grocery store. You might have paid with cash. Okay...fess up: Did you use a shopping cart? Did you park perfectly between the painted lines in the parking lot? Did you smile at the cashier? All evidence that you ....well what we don't know, but you ARE guilty! Of something.

I do, yes. I understand that given all the worlds problems, this one is pretty minor. I also return my shopping cart to the designated place. I try not to stop in crosswalks. I don't make left hand turns on the busiest streets in town, backing traffic up to Central Point. Little things. But why not just do the little things...at least.

Yeah. I don't always return the shopping carts to their place. If everyone did some kids would be out of a job LOL

I HOPE no one else here took that seriously! About the job loss if the carts were put back. Okay, I won't argue the point, but if one has a nice care (I don't...I have a pickup I never wash)...but if one has a car with a nice paint job I'm sure they enjoy coming out seeing a shopping cart against it and even a little scratch in the paint. No? Okay, I'll even concede that point trying to keep "peace in the family". And yeah, I too often grab a cart left in the lot. Wow. I guess I gotta work on my act.

I was simply trying to explain why what you jokingly said you do would be purposely mischievous compared to leaving a cart which is simply being lazy. And as far as a cart hitting a car. I never said I left a cart where it could roll away. I've never done that.

I try and smile at cashiers. They are working. The other night I was in a line with two people ahead of me and the cashier was lifting and bagging and scanning the other people's groceries SO SLOW!!! It was agonizing. But then I realized: She was in pain. She was working and doing her job with a smile on her face but working. Slowly. She confirmed it when she started to talk to me about it during small talk. There's often a reason. That 5 extra minutes irritated me, but calmed down when I figured it out. She said she still had two hours to go.

I get an email every week from this site. Most of the time I find a thing or two that interests me, but this seems packed with enough good stuff it deserves sharing with the one or two of you that will actually open this thread.

I try to not get email anymore. I know you hate FB, but there's literally 1000's of food groups and sites on there. One of my KC ones has 24,000 + members. Oh well.
Southern Oregon foodies, for instance.

Oh well. At one time I said I hated it too. I think it is what you make of it. Not to mention if you like being on this forum it's really the only alternative. Especially since some days it takes about 60 secs to look at all the new posts.. all two or three , And two out of those three are something I've already seen on FB.

I have to admit, I don't really like subscribing to things via email. I pretty much use the FB groups also. There's so many and the international ones with lots of input from different cultures can be fun.
