Plenty here to keep you busy Glen. You seem to take it in your stride - I would be fuming at the lack of care taken by people when playing or depositing unsuitable coins into these machines.
I guess having to leave stuff not fully functional weights on the job satisfaction somewhat, but you are not a miracle worker and cant carry every spare part.
Glad you had some time to write this evening.
Cheers

Hey, @abh12345.
Well, thank you. I didn't necessarily intend for the post to get as long as it did, though. :) I knew it had been long days, but when I recount them, I realize just how involved they were. It's a little different when you're in the moment.
re: fuming
I can't say I'm happy about it. However, it's kind of a challenge, and while the quarters end up back in the machines as I test and so forth, the other change—pennies, nickels, dimes, half dollars, dollars, and foreign coins—I get to keep.
So far, no coins from the UK, though I think I have a Euro piece in the stack. :)
re: miracle worker
Well, one of these days I hope to live up to that. As for carrying everything, it has not been possible yet. I'm hoping they'll get a location closer to home for storage. I've been told that's the intent. I was going to ask if the place in the mall they were looking at came together but didn't get the chance.
Well it seems the effort in your work and on the post has been rewarded in kind :)

Us Brits don't like to spend much :)
A storage location close to home sounds ideal - it must be frustrating to turn up without all the tools for the job.
I hope your weekend is going well :)
I'd say it's been a good one. My dad and youngest sister came up for lunch a movie today. We ate the lunch out and watched the movie at my house. Ford vs. Ferrari. Really enjoyed the food, the company and the movie. The perfect trifecta. :)
