MMeM, Vol. 8 Issue 1

ee, this wasn’t the first time a note has been left on this or many other vending machines here at work. It’s been done many, MANY times. Now I’ll bet that the vending employee is only trying to complete his or her run of refilling and emptying machines as fast as possible and that this is nothing but a time KILL. Well, there’s been plenty of time now that it was time to take the offensive on this issue.

 No one can ever quantify the minutes or effort spent in bending and standing again trying coins over and over again. And, try a $1 bill? Yeah, that’s a good one. So, this sign, which was prepared by yours truly was meant to serve two purposes. On the one hand, perhaps a well made sign with graphics and typing would get the issues on MULTIPLE machines addressed. But if not, this sign has the gift that keeps on giving the WHOLE year long Clark.

See, vending machine service men and woman handle a whole lot of change on their runs. So, how much time for the rest of their careers do you think that they may now spend looking for the valuable yet elusive pre-1965 Quarter?

 Yeah, we’re even vending machine employees. Check and mate.
