Vending world record

Post by Eatsweets »

Is this the vending world record.

I sited a new tower on Friday afternoon at 4pm, had a phone call today that the machine had been broken into over the weekend!!!! :tischkante:

I don't imagine that it would of had much money in it yet but obviously it was full of stock.

Going to pick it up in the morning so I will update the damage situation.

Bet it was a pub, was it a telesales site?

There are some unscrupulous individuals out there who would agree to have machines with the sole intention of breaking into them!
Its happened to me, Landlord is in Jail now for an unrelated crime!
This is where telesales fall flat on there face!
always best to exercise caution, if it looks dodgy, it normally is!

OK, you have been a little unlucky,it seems!
Best idea is to play for sympathy.
Explain what it will cost to repair machine, tell them how skint you are but you will keep it on site if they can give you an area near the bar where someone can keep an eye on it.
Ask them nicely if you can use the commission to pay for the damage and resume payment to them once you have been fully compensated :wink:

To be honest the place could be used for filming the next series of shamless so I am going to remove it.

But I like the idea and will Defo use that next time.

Community centres can have security problems if they don't have permanent full time staff.
