Respect for us younger blokes
Know it's late so don't expect many replies tonight but...
I always look out to take the trolley back at people in local supermarket if they are older then me or look struggling, etc.
I did it tonight as I was wearing my qld Union top after I washed my gq after a mud day (may have looked slightly dodgy but...)and the old bat looked shocked which made me think do others do this or did I look like a stalker?
I regularly do it in my local supermarket and I get a lot of shocked and I must say unappreciated responses so just checking is this trait lost or???

Too many people expect that there is an ulterior motive for everything these days - or maybe you do look like a stalker. LOL

In the same boat ab. Try opening a door for a heavily pregnant women the other day pushing a pram and the look I got was like daggers gouging my eye balls out.
It's a Pitty I have such a shit memory because next time I'd sit and watch her struggle..
But yes I also assist the elderly but also if walking past a not used troll in the car park I garb it on the way. Grinds my gears when you pull into a park and it has a trolly in it....

I at least look for the trolley storage area in the car park and return the trolley there. If I'm close enough to the store, I'll return it there.
A couple of times I've returned it to the trolley attendant and have always received a "thank you".
I'm not a person that leaves the trolley on an incline and watch it charge into the side of someone else's vehicle, as I'm driving off. Somebody might be using their dash cam in 'Parking" mode. lol.

Gotta pay for a trolley at my shopping centre and ppl are paid to retreive all the trollies.
If you dont have a gold coin to unlock a trolley you can use about 250mm of 4mm wire..
But paying for them [sort of] it means not many loose trollies to damage cars on windy days

I still do it, and hold the door open for others not just ladies, can't say I have ever had a negative response for doing it.
Maybe the old lady was shocked that there is still people out there that do it rather than the fact she thought you were a shady character.
Time is never wasted when your wasted all the time
