Greedy vending machines

[BrilloPad]

My brother used to work for Mars Vending in Slough.

Every Friday he came home with a large bag of extremely cheap mars confectionary.

Many years ago, when I were nowt but a graduate trainee, we were undergoing a 6 week orientation/induction/learn the basics of COBOL course at the British Gas Northern training centre. One hapless trainee lost his 10p in the machine, as the mars bar got caught on the swirly things on it's way down. The ex-olympic rower/rugby player trainee, helpfully tipped the machine to dislodge the mars bar.

Two days later, hapless and rower were in a disciplinary for nicking a marsbar from the vending machine, with a few of use who saw the incident as witnesses.

The complaint was withdrawn after we had a "word" with the jobsworth who'd shopped them.

Oh dear - at least you can console yourself with the thought that in the time it took to create this thread, you more than earned that sum back

...and his loss is one eurocent less than it was when he put the 20p coin in the machine.

Stole my 20p

You are allowed an axe at clientco? I am jealous. If I had an axe I would not have many users left.

I believe there's one in the boot of my car still there from bonfire night

I'm thinking of just taking an axe to it.

Is there a phone number on so you can ask for it back? 999?
