noahagosta :

There is no such thing as a labor shortage. Only wage shortages.

noname :

why is vending machine more expensive than convenience store?

cmdplusz :

Wait..not until I visit

ayanoh🌟 :

I’LL MOVE!!!! GIVE ME A VISA I WILL SAVE THE VENDING MACHINE EMPIRE!!!!

Jenell :

They could become profitable if they simply lowered the prices

JT :

If the conbini can sell them cheaper.... so can vending machines... the labor shortage makes sense. The price hikes don't. "raw material costs" aren't effecting conbinis or grocery stores so...

Cuckules :

Let's be frank, maybe a vending on every block and near every convenience store isn't essential.

BABY JESUS :

i will take the job of restocker if they sponsor me to move

HulkBusta :

Can I come to Japan for the vending machine maintenance job??🫪 I’ll do it if I can move there

ZenkaTheMyth :

Companies really increasing prices and then going "Why is no one buying our stuff anymore 🤤"

vending machines are fun but there'll be 3 Lawson's within 15 steps of one 💀 I can't wrap my head around the economics of it

the_viccode :

What do you mean they don't have enough people to keep it runing. Unemployment in my country is 70%
