Again, not addressing the valid points I’ve introduced. Also, very odd phrasing throughout…
“Did this for a job in my youth?” We humans don’t speak like that? Also, “in my youth” sounds like the shopping cars you were collecting were horse drawn.
“the least productive time I ever spent while working?” Who the fuck worries about productivity in a minimum wage job like this? “Yeah, I don’t know Dad… I’ve just been really worried lately that my productivity is down this quarter. I’m cleaning up less vomit per hour at Weiner Hut than typical and I’m just worried the business owner isn’t extracting as much profit from my labor as they could be…”

I hope you learn to consider nuance and stop arguing against the interests of workers in favor of heartless corporations.

“labor that doesn’t need to exist” feels like it’s from a very privileged POV. what if those 30-40 mins here and there are the difference between me meeting the 29 hour a week threshold required to qualify for health or education benefits?
I’m commenting from a US biased perspective where you seem to be commenting from a European perspective based on your spelling. If that’s the case, you already have your core needs met through your government, we do not in this flawed country.

I don’t think this comment actually responds to my points. I’ve worked many hourly retail and restaurant jobs myself. In many there was a regular struggle to hit minimum hours per week to qualify for benefits and managers were instructed to cut people during perceived slow times - none of this considering that I sat in an hour traffic to show up for my scheduled 8 hour shift that I need to meet to make my rent.
I was happy when gobacks piled up, shelves needed to be faced, tables needed to be bused and yes, to carts needed to be collected. When that was the case, I typically made my hours in those common, “we’re going to need to cut someone” moments.
Again, this entire conversation seems biased to the business owner, the corporation’s labor cost, and not the employee. Saying “all the carts are going to hit cars” is a false premise, in my opinion. And what I’m arguing for is the “good trouble” version of this. Place the carts safely away and maybe near the corral, but not in the corral.

Why is this practice promoted?
It’s someone’s job and they make their money grabbing those carts, aren’t we taking that away from them if all is perfectly arranged and they can just collect the carts in 2 minutes? This concept seems to only benefit the business in saving labor?
Coincidentally, I was checking out two days ago at a Costco and the manager came up to my cashier and said, “close up after this one, I’m going to send you home early okay?” The cashier said, “yeah, I guess…” But you could tell they clearly didn’t want to leave early. If there were a bunch of carts in the parking lot at that point, feels like that person might get an extra 30 mins or so on the clock… Why aren’t we supporting that? Manager would say, " let’s close you down after this one, and then please do a lap in the parking lot to grab carts before you go"
Us carefully putting the carts away as customers is just free labor that the corporation benefits from… Period. How does this help the worker making an hourly wage?

For those claiming to be upset about body shaming in this specific instance, nazis believe they are literally genetically superior specimens - that’s like one of the main parts of their deal. It’s party of why they perpetually want to SLAUGHTER millions of people, to rid the world of what they see as less superior genes in the pool.
Therefore, it is HIGHLY appropriate in this case to point out, frequently and with enthusiasm, that elmo is a very divorced and bloated potato, soaked overnight in a bath of drugs and one of those middle school colognes that you wear because you desperately hope people will like you more if you wear it - ketamine and kool water.
So it’s not at all inappropriate to point out that the world’s international shame, our oddly lumpy elmo and his be-diapered old vice president, are tremendously far from a physical fitness ideal condition. They are infact, very proud membersof the Master Race (to Krispy Kreme). So feel free to confine to state that he is certainly a member of the Master bRACEsiere or that he takes his Master raICE CREAM with extra nachos on top - fuck nazis, without exception, and the people who apologize on their behalf.
My heart goes out to you.

“Our’research has determined that we can fill up to 90% of the visual field with advertisements before inducing seizures!”
Corporations all genuinely want to be that guy so fucking bad, just because they think that if they do become him, they might actually starry to finally feel something… anything. Or they think if they become that guy their father might say "I love you " for the first time or some other sad “this is why I’m a serial killer” shit.

Don’t try to hang Android phones on boomers. Boomers are dipshits with tech and iphones are designed for toddlers. Majority of boomers use iPhones.

The FDA is too strong of a brand, they won’t defund or eliminate, they’ll just replace entire staff with sycophants and lower standards so that all kinds of snake oil (that administration has a “taste” of) becomes “FDA Approved” so the AI can sell it to incels on twitter and facebook. And ultimately when editing is “FDA APPROVED” then NOTHING is FDA Approved. The next 4 - 20 years are going to continue to be a push to break confidence in American institutions, to make America a weaker and weaker player (and a bigger joke) on the international stage. All so that they have less influence in world affairs (I.e. Ukraine, Israel, etc).

Fuck all the corpo fucks involved here with their plausible deniability attempt. If you truly felt any remorse, you’d talk about how you’ll disengage this AI chum service, or demand that requests are extremely precise or hyper targeted at specific direct issues. This story of blanket action helps the big company with monkey and always hurts the little guy that gets swept up in their ravenous wake.
Also, educate the next month of your online presence you boosting the brand you wronged with your reach. But you won’t do shit, you aren’t remorseful.

Smiling guy is a patsy they’ll try to hang for this to help other CEOs sleep peacefully on their second yachts at night after a long day of forcing 5 day a week return to office mandates for overworked employees with “leadership” emails sent remotely from Saint-Tropez.
Weird thing is, neither of these photos has the guy… they already know the man responsible for this and many other deaths, his name was Brian Thompson.
