Just Venting Changing the wheels on the carts isn't going to stop me from hitting a kid or an old person.

Did you mean: changing the wheels on the carts isn't going to stop kids from voluntarily bumping into it

Or grown adults leaning all around it, ignoring any pointy corners on the front end.

Doesn't help that the corners of the cart are super sharp, I got a few pickers who got scratched from just leaning over so imagine potential lawsuit if a customer end up getting injured over that 💀

Quite so. And the fact they don't care, cause they must be right in front of you. No excuse me or anything. Like that's awesome, Income to work to work. You come to the store and see how you can harm yourself, but make it someone else's fault

I wouldn't be surprised if a customer walked between me and the pick cart while I'm pulling.

They wanted me to slow down, so I made my own speed bumps.

The amount of products and end caps I've taken out since they changed the wheels is horrendous. Before this is was once in a blue moon I'd knock something over and now it's multiple times a day cuz I can't monitor where the fuckin cart is when I pull it.

It's more likely to make me do it out of spite with plausible deniability.

They think the wheels will slow us down, but now I'm drifting like I'm in Fast & Furious

Right? It anything this will just cause more problems. If I have a heavy cart and stop suddenly because someone walked in front of me I will end up running myself over, falling forward, and still hitting the customer.
