'Shopping cart return guy' at grocery store would be GOAT job if it paid well

Seriously. Throw on some headphones and spending 8 hours out in the fresh air, getting great exercise, not dealing with anyone, and simply returning carts from parking spaces to the front of the store. If it paid well, it would be the greatest job in the world.

I don't think that's actually a job. It's usually the janitor that does it periodically or other workers in the store.

I thought so too. The guy at the walmart by me has it particularly good as he only brings in like 3 carts at a time and the store is always out of them.

I did it during a summer in high school and it was pretty good, especially during the weekdays where the store wasn't that busy.

There were tons of areas around the side of the store where I would just hide and play games on my psp. I would take a cart with me in that off chance that a supervisor came by so it looked like I was grabbing a stray cart lol.

You could take extra long breaks too and no one would notice. Cashier breaks were timed and monitored by a supervisor. But no knew how long I've been on break for or even cared as long as the job was being done.

For sure the GOAT job in the store.

I did it at Costco for years and made around 27/ hr with 5 weeks paid vacation, bonuses twice a year, and a bunch of other perks.


Just got so tired of it, and Costco carts are big and heavy, it's actual labor. 20k+ steps per day while moving heavy carts adds up after a few years.

Yeah, ****ty wheels, on ****ty parking lot asphalt, usually slightly uphill.

1 cart is about 50 lbs, push 10-12 around for 8 hours a day and see how it feels. Now add in a ton of heavy clothes for winter,and 100 degree days in the summer. The asphalt gets to be close to 130 degrees and a few thousand metal cars reflecting heat don't help.

Carts is regarded as the most physically demanding job Costco offers.

in rural america where grocery stores are small and low paced you are supposed to take them inside, no corrals either.

but in the cities grocery stores are huge with thousands of people going in and out per day with 100 acre parking lots. if everyone returned their carts to the store it would be a clusterfuk of foot traffic

there are a few days where i think being a tradie is goat. id say 8 out 10 electricians play music while working. the private place i worked it didn't matter - the boss was never on site - but you're technically not supposed to play it on site. still, most do

but if the foreman is not around and ive been left alone it's pretty goat

A lot of jobs would be great if they paid well. Of course everyone would want to work that job.

Radios become a problem more often than not due to knuckle draggers. Dude has to blast his radio full volume all of the time because they want to jam out. They have to listen to one kind of music all of the time, usually same songs played over and over. Someone else brings in a radio just to drown it out and we have battle of the bands going on. Normal people can't stand it.
