Look at those damn shopping carts, Joe thought. Two of them were parked
on his front lawn. Two more were parked behind his car in the driveway.
His neighborhood had gone to hell. He lived half a mile from Foodco, a
supermarket chain. Nobody should take a shopping cart half a mile from
the supermarket. And no one with any respect for others should leave a
shopping cart in a stranger's yard.
Shoppers should push the cart out to their car, and then leave it there.
If they don't own a car, they should buy their own personal cart to
transport their groceries home.
He called Foodco to tell them that four carts were on his property. They
said they would be over as soon as they could. That meant about a week.
Throughout his neighborhood, carts were scattered in various places,
including the streets themselves. As if kids, pets, and potholes weren't
enough, drivers now had to dodge shopping carts. Joe wondered how there
could be any left in the supermarket. Foodco paid over $100 for each
cart, so he thought they'd guard them better. Instead, they did nothing
to secure the carts. They simply paid someone to drive around the
neighborhood once or twice a week to pick up stranded carts.
Joe opened the yellow pages of his phone book. He was going to hire a
contractor to build a fence around his lawn and a locking gate for his
driveway. Enough was enough.
