| | I went grocery shopping today. I shopped for about forty minutes, getting things on my list and not on my list. I had a cart, not a hand-held basket. That's how much shopping I was doing. I left my shopping cart for less than two minutes (I would be hard-pressed to imagine it was even more than a minute and a half) at the end of an aisle in order to get something in the middle of the aisle, which was halfway blocked with boxes a teenage employee was unpacking and shelving. While I looked for what I wanted, he left the aisle. When I decided I didn't find what I really wanted and went back to my cart, it was gone. I looked up and down aisles for it. Totally gone.
I'm pretty sure the teenage stockboy decided it was an abandoned cart, and took it to the nearby back room to unload.
I didn't get any of my groceries because I didn't want to spend at least another half hour reshopping for them, especially because the store had been filling steadily with pre-Bowl game shoppers since I'd come in myself.
This is just one example of what was typical of today.
