    Counterpoint:

    The Wholefoods in Redmond, Wa is known as Hellfoods by their employees because of how cold people are there and how overbearing management can be. It also is in one of the most beautiful parts of the country. When I worked there, I love the warm summer evenings when I could go out to the outfield to fetch a cart because I got to be outside and no longer under the micromanagement that is retail.

    When I would clock off, sometimes I’d nab a cart and send it out on purpose for the guy behind me to give them an escape.

      Did every other employee feel the same way as you? Because otherwise that’s not a counterpoint.

        But you could say the same for the original premise- not every employee hates getting rogue carts, in fact many like getting them.

        I gave an anecdotal point, but the broader argument simply questions one of the assumptions of OP.
