Violence against vending bots is warranted in ALL cases.

If he put in two bucks and the Twix still didn’t fall then there’s no way it was only one turn away from falling in the first place. It had to be a few turns away from the git-go. I feel his response was appropriate, though.

The vending machine at my work has a sensor that knows if the candy has dropped, and if it hasn’t, it will continue twirling the spiral until something drops. This can end up giving you more than what you paid for, if one extra twist can dislodge not only the stuck one, but the one behind it.

Theft by machine. Reminds me of stoplight cameras with no witness to question in court.

I can relate to this - this has happened to me several times. The first time, I was able to shake the item loose, but lately my strength has declined and and I can no longer get the item to drop.
I'm reminded of the guy in Dr. Strangelove who emptied his pistol into the Coke machine.
Justifiable use of force, IMHO.

Yep. The fact that the employer replaced ALL of the (crappy?) vending machines should vindicate the guy.

wrong. It’s about what he did with the 8,000-pound forklift.

I worked with some guys who did the same thing but only dropped the machine not even an inch. The candy bar came loose but the unintended side effect was the price of everything reset to a nickle!
Word got out and the line in front of the machine was 30 people long.
They did it a few times with identical results each time.

I coach a high school robotics team. You ain’t seen nothing till you’ve seen a group of future engineers with access to a machine shop trying to rescue an undropped candy bar from a machine. My son was right in the thick of it. They were successful
