11:00 – Have you heard the “Shopping cart theory”? It says that returning a shopping cart is a good indicator of whether someone is a good person, because we all know it’s the right thing to do but there are no consequences if we don’t do it. Gormley says he uses a different measurement for whether someone is a good person: how they treat wait staff in restaurants. What metric do you use to judge whether or not someone is a good person?
