That's a clever way to rationalize being lazy. A grocery store operating that way near me would quickly have zero customers. Perhaps your typical layout is different from ours.
Cart returns in the US are typically positioned throughout the parking lot. It is quite straightforward to just return the cart to the proper spot, usually right near where I parked.
If I left my cart just next to my car or something, the next person to arrive would not have a safe place to park, due to the hazard posed by carts flailing around the parking lot. People do so occasionally, of course. If it happens a lot, though, I would turn around and leave. I'm not returning every cart for them and I don't want my car destroyed.
I don't live in the US. Here are spots next to the car spots to let the cart for the staff to pick later, but go ahead, judge everybody else by your metrics and costumes.
That's...exactly what I was describing, all while right up front acknowledging that others might do the layout and process differently. Is English not your first language? If you wont put your cart in the cart return, you are lazy. You seem to just want an excuse to be rude, so i will move on and say good day.
That's what the US does 🤔 how is it safer to leave your cart elsewhere
