Murphy's Law?

It seems inevitable. I go to the grocery store and grab a cart. Even if I carefully select a cart to make sure the wheels aren't bent or wobbly or whatever, I get a cart that immediately becomes a nuisance once I am inside the store. The cart steers to the right or a wheel is locked or the cart frame is bent and one wheel never touches the ground.

A few weeks ago I went to the grocery store and the cart rack was full of brand new carts. I thought I had a change of luck. Took the very first cart as there was no way I would be able to get a bad cart when they are all brand new.

Once inside the door, the inevitable happened. The right rear wheel went into spin mode. It never touched the ground and the cart steered to the right. What are the odds? I think that somewhere, out there, at a grocery cart manufacturing plant, there is a worker laughing heartily, knowing that a piece of his handiwork is causing someone a less than perfect shopping trip.
