Last time this shit came up, some dude chimed in that walking around the parking lot collecting lose carts was the best part of his day, since he could be outside away from managers slowly collecting them relaxing.
It was hit or miss at previous jobs. I worked at Kmart for a few years and would often help the stock guys round up carts in the evening. During summer evenings it was kind of fun wandering way out into that concrete sea with the boys, rounding up impossibly far carts and running the wrong carts (or electric scooters) back to the grocery store next door. But during the winter it was hell on fucking earth, and I'd help them round them up just to spare them the agony of a slipped disk.
I live in Canada now and couldn't imagine rounding up carts during these cold snaps. You'd probably stick to them, imprisoning you in parking lot until you succumb to frostbite.
This is why I never ever put carts away. Give those poor kids something better to do than stand inside and listen to bitching customers while they bag their groceries.
They don't even need to push the carts. They just walk around with a little machine that does the pushing while they bop around with their headphones on enjoying the fresh air.
