Setting aside the fact that most Coca-Cola products are, indeed, full of things that are detrimental to your health, I’m very annoyed by what they did to the vending machines at the UofI campus.
When I first saw them deactivating the old vending machines and indicating that they were going to replace them with new ones, I thought it was great. The old vending machines were okay, but they didn’t have the little credit card swipers, and some of the labels were old. But then, they replaced them with these newer vending machines that are red and very well-lit, and there’s no benefit to them. They raised the price of a bottle to $1.50 from $1.25, and the credit card thing doesn’t work. Even worse, all of the vending machines have a reduced selection, so now I have to go to every building on campus to keep tabs on which ones have Mello Yello or Cherry Coke because they’re now mutually exclusive to each vending machine.
WTF?
I can say for certain that someone in charge of the vending machines on campus is retarded, in the truly derogatory sense of the word.
