Been doing this at my local Winn Dixie the last couple of weeks. Doesn’t help that it’s often an expirable product such as a jug of milk or something from the meat aisle.
Fun fact: some libraries do not want you to re-shelve books you’re looking at because one of their metrics is what books (or what genre or subject) is perused by what number of patrons. This can help them increase their funding. It’s not all about which books are borrowed.
After I worked for American Greetings for several years it took me 2 years or more to stop straightening card displays when I shopped for cards in stores.
One difference between my retail experience and this comic, is that Norm calls it “fronting” the shelves and the places I worked called it “facing” the shelves. I’m in Canada, no idea if that made a difference.
Same thing happens if you’ve worked in a Library.
hence the last line.

I’ve done this, and I’ve never worked retail or in a library.

Define “re-shelve”. I think what they’re talking about here is straightening shelves, not taking books from the cart and putting them back.
