Was a trainer at my first job.
Got an idea to "Welcome" the new hire, shortly after I was made a trainer.
Showed him the soda machine, that charged .60 per soda. Neat trick, I said. Hit the machine twice on the side, near the coin slot, then drop in your dime. I told him the machine would rock a little, and a sensor thought two quarters had been put in. Had to hit it kinda hard.
He did not see me earlier drop two quarters in. Wow, neat trick, thanks he said. I told him not to show anyone.
Hah, a young teen, not show off? 1 day after training, there he was, showing off to a girl, pounding on the side of the machine, trying to get it to work. Damn near broke his hand, but I laughed so hard. Still laugh, 30 years later.
