This is very bad news though, he may en d up welfare for the next 50 years or so and live out the rest of his life as an unemployable burden.

Vending machines are for suckers.

These idiots don’t know that stores sell that crap for a fraction of the price of those machines?

if the forking machine lifted you it only seems fair you forklift it

OMG -- before I was done reading the article, I thought exactly the same thing!!

Gives a whole new meaning to candy crush.......

[VerySadAmerican]

I remember when some vending machines had potato chips etc hanging on spiral spindles. You pushed the button and the spindle turned, allowing the next bag to fall. All you had to do was tip the machine forward and the entire spindle would fall.

I never did it but I saw people do it. I will admit I put pinball machines on my toes and would win a bunch of games then put it back on the floor.

In my opinion the forklift operator showed entirely too much restraint in dealing with the vending machine.

State unemployment records say his banging and rocking the machine didn't work, so McKevitt commandeered a forklift, picked up the machine at least six times and dropped it on the floor at the Polaris Industries' warehouse in Milford. Three candy bars fell.

Tough machine. Must have made a racket with all the banging and clanking, not about to give up the goodies. "FMCDH"

The employer needs to suck it up and have a good laugh with this guy, as I was assured many times today on an earlier thread about this. Those of us who said he should have a little respect for his employer’s property were “pwned” by the funny people.

I applaud this person because it makes me laugh. I do not condone the destruction of private property unless you get home from the drive through and they forgot your onion rings.
