How many people pay attention in Wal*Mart parking lots?

Question

As a cart pusher at my local Wal*Mart i've noticed people really don't seem to pay attention in our parking lot. I almost get hit at least oncea a day. Also some idiot backed right into my cart machine the other day! Before I give up all hope in humanity, I just wanted to see how many people actually pay attention in parking lots

Answer 1

maby you are the one not paying attention

Answer 2

It isn't just the parking lot.  There are lot of bad drivers out there.

When I was growing up, basically the only person who drove was Papa-san.  But now everybody drives (every body over 16).  So there has to be more bad drivers.

Good Luck...

Answer 3

Not many people pay attention in parking lots period, be it Walmart or Target or the local grocer.  This world is over populated with morons, get used to it because until something starts killing them off as a result of their stupidity nothing is going to encourage smart attentive behavior.  A natural predator would, or a shortage of food,  but beyond that....it's hopeless.

Answer 4

Not just in Walmart parking lot, but many others because a lot of people just don't pay attention to their driving. The space between the lines is 10', wide enough for all vehicles (except military Humvees) and yet people will park on the lines, some even over the lines, taking up two spaces.  Courtesy and consideration seem to have all but disappeared.  But there are still many "good folks" out there.

Answer 5

You must live in south Florida. I lived in south Florida for three years and was surprised at the number of people that speed right through parking lots at 40 mph. I think they had rather run someone over then to stop and let someone walk across a parking lot. My boyfriend almost got hit one day as he was walking across a parking lot by some idiot that was driving too fast and was not paying attention. She was nice enough to stop and apologise for almost hitting him. Unfortunately there are a lot of stupid drivers in this world and I often wonder how they got their license. Be careful out there.

Answer 6

i dont know but it sure seems like they arent paying attention in the stores either....when im taking a heavy pallet of birdseed to lawn and garden..instead of being polite and moving ,they keep walking in my direction until i have to start yelling excuse me.and the parents...letting their kids run all over the place..while they are too busy talking on the phone..and then the parents get mad for us correcting the kids for running and climbing on stuff.they actually get mad at us for doing THEIR job.if they did their job,we wouldnt feel the need to do it for them.they cant seem to comprehend that we are concerned for their kids safety (i sometime wonder if the parent cares for their safety) no matter who's store im in ,i always try to be safe,i get out of the way of the associate when they are moving heavy things.i stay off the phone and spend time with my kid as it is more important.and if i see something on the floor i pick it up and toss it on the shelf....people should realize that safety is EVERYONES responsibility not just the associates.i would sure hate to have somebodys kid or elderly get hurt because i was too lazy to have done something simple like picking an item up...even if i wasnt in walmart

Answer 7

Its not just the walmart parking lot. Some people just are horrible drivers and/or they are complete morons. Some people dont know the basic rules of the road. If you ever come down to Georgia you will see the stupidest drivers you have ever seen. If you think the parking lot is dangerous try going on the interstate.

Just the other day I was stopped at the light and I see the DRIVER of another car open the door VOMIT close the door and continued driving when the light turned green. There is something seriously wrong with people.

Answer 8

I do i swear i always park at the end of the lot were no cars park and walk farther, At least twice a week i see a cart rolling into a car or someone pulling into a parking spot and hit bumpers with the car in front of them then, Get out and shut the door like nothing happened!!
