Thanks, I’m not going to read a glorified ad ….. not a bad idea though.

The company I work at has something like this in IT. If you need something simple like a cable or new mouse or headphones ….. instead of opening a ticket and making an appointment and trying to chase down the IT who’s supposed to be at the appointment, you just use the vending machine. In this case, scan your badge and it spits out the thing. I’m sure they keep track of it somewhere but it’s so nice to just get the theming instead of going through all the hassle
