Vending Machines Dispense Nothing But Trouble

I was on my way to class and I needed some sugar to pick me up, so I stopped by the vending machines. When I put my dollar in the machine, it made a strange clicking noise like the Predator on a snack binge. The machine refused to give me my food.

When I looked down to press the button that returns the change, it was missing.

Then I went to the bursars office and after speaking to a somewhat recalcitrant accountant, found out that they wouldn’t have anymore refund coupons for the next “couple” days.  What if I don’t want a freaking coupon? What if I just want my dollar back?

I would really appreciate it if MDC could upgrade their decades-old vending machines. I’ve spoken to alumni from the 80s and 90s who tell me that some of the machines at school are the same ones they dealt with when they were here.  This whole process of running back and forth from the bursars office to the vending machine is getting old, just give me my money so I can get to class.
