the problem of anglowal*mart, and this problem generalises, is that it places people in a large warehouse without also informing them of the importance of understanding you are in a place, and have equipment.

if elected, i promise to make manual handling and warehouse operations training mandatory for all, under penalty of 5 strokes.

It is also necessary to train architects and builders in the realities of steering a pallet jack loaded with heavy merchandise, such as "if the floor is for some fucking reason not level, this will have effects on the steering of etc., even if it is not readily obvious to an unladen human that the floor is for some fucking reason etc., and I will be three inches from run over by a ton of seltzer at the store the other day"

i wonder if giving people pump trucks, rather than shopping trolleys [please translate unfamiliar terms into american yourself, yankee doodle] would help people get into a Warehouse Mindset when shopping.

is a pump truck the same thing as a pallet jack? pallet jacks are for moving around pallets loaded with many large boxes of the same item. in a warehouse u use a container which is put on a cart of some sort, which is presumably identical to a "trolley". the cart may either be divided into sections or allow stacking of containers, but either way it allows the separate and simultaneous shoppening of multiple orders, for maximum efficiency & shareholder value
