First off - not a retail employee.
Untidy carts in the corral, for some reason, annoy me. Even if it takes a few minutes to sort them, for size and straightness, I have to - much to the annoyance of people who are waiting for me to get back to the car.
I guess it’s irritation at the bad people who cba to be considerate to the cart collectors. Ffs you aren’t doing someone’s job, you are making their lives a bit less shit for 30s of effort.
It’s a hay rake design by some guy called Barnsley… Arts & Crafts movement. Plain oak top, 7’x3’ ish, dovetail fit to oak hay rake frame which is wooden pinned together. The top has been abused over the years but being oak it just absorbs the abuse and turns it into character!
There is one in the same style in Cheltenham museum (UK) but mine is nicer. My cousin has its twin.
Not sure it counts but I have an oak dining table my grandfather bought back in 1910 or there abouts… So 113 years-ish. Still used every day.
In the UK there is a split between England and Wales and Scotland. “southern” UK trespass is a civil offence. Scotland it is criminal.
So in southern UK trespassers will most definitely not be prosecuted (the railway and power plant property are, iirc, the two exceptions because they have by-laws) but may be sued for damages, in Scotland they can be prosecuted.
