lame machines?
no... machines do not have legs...
but i finally found out how a machine could be lame... well... at least, a sandwich machine could...
there's this hot toast machine down at the forum below central library which sells hot toast! (duhz) I wanted to try the toast frm this machine since quite sometime ago... and today i finally decided to get down to try it...
the toast i got cost $2... and i'm out of luck cuz i've just used up by $2 note yesterday... so only left with a $10 one... i stared at the machine... no instructions pertaining to change is given except that one won't receive any change if they insert a note and not buy anything... (which means.. i will get change if i buy something rite?) so i happily slot in the $10 note... thinking i'll get my change back in $2 notes... but suddenly, while my sandwich is being toasted... i heard a clank... *stunned* so i squat down to look at the coin dispenser (which dispenses coins in cases of change...) and.... 20 cents came dropping out like nobody's biz... since the coin dispenser is really very small.. i scrambled to dig out all the 20cents the machine spewed.... and only subsequently, 4 50cent coins came out...
wth.... THAT's my change? o_O i remembered that back in primary sch... when i was happily buying a drink off the drink machine when it suddenli start spitting coins out... i was shocked... but.. at least... it feel kinda funny n happy.. cuz it's extra money (and mind u i returned the money to the office ok!!) but this time, i was shocked.. and felt damn ridiculous... cuz it's clearly my change... weI~!~!!! don't even have a one dollar coin ar?!!!?!
so i grabbed that handfull of coins not knowing what to do... can't really count the change also cuz my hands r full... grabbed my sandwich n dumped all the coins in my pocket (thankfully today i wore pants wif pockets...) only count the coins when i reach the LT...
come to think of it... it seems to dispense coins at the smallest denomination.... and since no 10cent coins... issit some poor soul infront of me who tio all the coins??? =S
anyway, if u happen to be a nus peep... dun ever feed the machine a 10 dollar note unless u really wan lotsa change...
arghh.. life's turning lame
