Since I'm in the business of caring, I'd like to teach everyone how to walk. I run into this problem quite a bit, nearly literally: when I walk in the park, in malls, in Wal-Mart (and when I drive, especially on highways and interstates), I find that people don't know proper procedure. You should think of aisles and paths as roads; treat them like you would lanes on a highway—you're the vehicle. It's very simple:

1. Stay on the right (→) side.
2. Shift into the left (←) side only if you're passing slower moving objects in front of you in the right lane. Move back to the right afterward.

Two steps. Still, people can't do it. It's OK, though; it motivates me to jog faster.
