While growing our vending business we encountered all kinds of vending problems. From the customers who found out that washer and stir sticks allowed them to steal product from out mechanical machines to the lady who got mad at me because she dropped her vended coffee 6 feet away from the machine.
Most problems can easily be fixed.
But be warned, most people don't call to thank you for a great chocolate bar, and with today's work environment becoming more and more stressful many customers liked to vent some of their pent up stress on the vending guy.
Over the years Patti and I learned to not take it personally. We would address every problem as it came up. Try to correct it in the shortest possible time, and occasionally use the phrase, "No Speak English". Of course, the same irate customer would get confused when they saw us conversing with another customer in the location one week later.
There are daily problems when running your business. But that is true of any legitimate business. At a certain point the rewards outweigh the aggravation.

Dear Rob
Got your book.... We had 12 machines we were running that ended up costing us about $350 a month, not including our time and gas money. 2 of the ideas in your package helped get this thing turned around. We're doing a little better than break even now. .......and I get mad at what I think we could be doing if we'd gotten this first. Your ebook is worth thousands. Thanks.
