This used to happen to me in school all the time but I knew the material, I was just crap at exams. Fortunately, my grad program was mostly project and research paper based, otherwise I'd have probably flunked out.

I have been known to grab a couple of the small carts and push 2-3 of them back to the entrance if I notice the cart people are struggling. If the big carts are all gone from the entrance, the Kroger employees are on their own.
