Do The Right Thing, Return Your Trolley
Do the right thing, return your trolley. Personally, I think that too many people are taking trolleys in hypermarkets for granted. People want to take the trolleys as they are really very cheap, you can have it just for $1. Trolleys are just innocent helpers of mankind. Trolleys are beasts of burden, carrying your groceries to your car, never complaining, never asking a word of thanks. In the past, FairPrice had implemented various measures to address this industry-wide trolley issue, from ID exchange to the use of perimeter sensor technology that locks the wheels of the trolley when it crosses the perimeter. If I borrowed a book and did not return it to you, would you be generous enough to let me have it? If you're so generous with me not returning - can I borrow (not steal) $50 for the weekend? Similarly, just state on each trolley that its supermarket's property.
I just don't get it, why do people just want to take things for granted? If you see an abandoned trolley at the side of the road, would you be an angel and return it, or would you be tempted by the dark side of yourself and bring the trolley home? There was once when I saw my neighbour bringing home a trolley. With justice welling up in me, I decided to persuade him to return the trolley but all I got was a flea in my ear. What are your views?
