Crap

So I really wanted to buy a Pepsi from the vending machine, but I don't have any change or singles.  Just a $20 bill.  I know the lunchroom folks don't like making change (I made THAT mistake only once), so I figured I'd just buy some chips or something.

 

I go to buy some chips, and the lady winces when she see's my $20.  "You can just take it," she says, "and owe me 45 cents.  It's ok."

 

So now I've got chips I don't really want, no Pepsi, and the same $20 bill.

Ha! That's fantastic...

You should just go to costco, get some uber box of pepsi and lock it in a drawer of your desk. Then, you are always prepared!

Why are the lunch people so anti-change? They must be McCain fans.

And when the Pepsi runs out, Norm... what happens THEN?!

PS: I have a good Nethack game going... :)

Or a big stack of one doller bills locked in your desk drawer. That wouldn't look suspicious.

I've been struggling on nethack. I'm playing, but getting no luck. I have yet to find an aligned altar (that used to be my go-to move, find an altar and offer stuff until I get a cool weapon)...

As I said in my post, I tried that route first along time ago. They didn't take too kindly to it.

Ahaha! I literally LOL'd at this, and I never REALLY LOL, even when I say I LOL.
