Welcome to General Memes

Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CruelWe’re here for laughs, not fights.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it light — argue in the comments, not with insults

Rule 2: No Forbidden FormatsNot every image deserves immortality on the memmlefield. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (seriously, don’t ruin the fun)
  • NSFW memes must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can take care of it.

Otherwise consider this your call to duty. Get posting or laughing. Up to you

It's not a punishment. It's part of the job.

If we keep putting away carts and self checking our groceries, that person won't have a job.

They take in the carts from the designated cart returns.

Why are you working for free for a multi-million dollar corporation that doesn't give a shit about you? Just leave your cart anywhere. Someone will be along to collect it.

Because I care about the people that work for them. The only person acting like a cold hearted corporation is you. Why have you let their actions steal your humanity? If you can't bring yourself to help out someone making around minimum wage and then use corporate greed as an excuse, you're kind of a piece of shit.

Give me a break. You are pretending returning a cart is some sort of moral high ground just because it's pointed out you're doing free labour for multi-million dollar corporations with nothing in return for you.

If you REALLY cared for the employees you'd be standing outside the store demanding they pay better so they employees can get above the poverty line and no longer need food stamps to survive.

What kind of 10 year old child logic is that? Unless I can devote my life to a cause there is no point in making anything better? It seems like you've crafted a world view where you get to act like a conservative asshat but with the smugness of a Hasan type loser. So glad I don't know someone like you irl.

Why stop there? You could leave a bunch of little messes around the store so the wage slaves have plenty to do.

If they keep purging human workers over profits, I just might.

Being lazy under the guise of helping people get jobs?? Gimme a fucking break 😂. Lemmy never ceases to amaze me

Massive grocery chains don't give a shit about you. They are happily starving society for more profit.

If you think taking your stupid cart back is some sort of noble deed, you're a sucker. All you're doing is helping the CEO keep his overhead down.
