Last week, i dropped by the new snack machine on my floor at work. The only thing that appealed was a 3 Musketeers, but unfortunately there was an empty space where there ought to be a candy bar, and i didn't feel like spending $1.20 on a candy bar, so i walked away and chatted with some coworkers. My boss then headed to the snack machine, got something, and noticed that there was a 3 Musketeers bar just lying there, so he left it on a plate in front of us. So, hey, that's what i wanted, but it didn't feel right to leave the empty space there for the next poor sucker while i got a candy bar for free. So i figured that the right thing to do was put the money in and purchase the empty space to go with my free candy bar, and restore balance to the Force. And that's what i did. Ten seconds after i walked away, i heard a clunk; another bar had slipped through somehow. So i shrugged and kept it. What's weird is that it didn't look like there was another empty space in the rack.
