I don’t know how people take shitposts seriously. Do we have way too many literal thinkers on Lemmy?
I think it's a testament to on the nose satire and hitting at the heart of people's anxieties about work.
You calm down, this person's tapped a market of people willing to pay $10+ per drink from a vending machine! I wanna know their secret, cause I'm switching careers if I can pull ~$78k annually from a single machine
Listen up! AI's gonna be a game changer. If you don't master passive prompting kids your vending machines good bye. Buy my book, "Passive Prompting"!
The secret is to make awful doughnuts with da bomb spiked filling and offer them a compliment doughnut when they arrive. Water is $3, soda is $4, and milk/soy milk is $5.
Coca-Cola owns the machines, btw.
Guess who own Coca Cola —-> Passive Income /s
I used to run an auto service center with a Coke machine in the waiting room. Once a month I would get a commission check in the mail from Coca-Cola for usually about $50 or $60. We averaged about 40 cars a day through that place so the machine got a lot of business...
Guess who owns a key for the machine?!
Unless you have an older machine, probably the Coke guy.
Coke wants to control what drinks are in the machine and what percentage of the take Coke gets, so they refill the machines.
We used to have an older machine on an old contract, and since we didn't really care about the income from it we let Coke swap it for a new one they'd service.
About 2 months later, they said we weren't selling enough drinks and took the new machine away.
It's not really passive income, though. You have to get people in there and interview them. Even if you just spend 10 minutes per applicant, that's already 600 minutes, or 10 hours. So yes, this is a decent hourly wage, at least until word gets around about what you're doing, which it will, because what kind of job interview is done in 10 minutes? Not one where you actually have a chance.
And yes, I do realize this post is most likely a joke. Still fun to reply to, though.
So about $10 a drink minimum? (assuming $300/day gross income)
If they can find 30 people per day to pay those prices, they need to quit their job and go full time into vending machine sales. They have a gift
Or just become a bartender.
That's not passive... 60 interviews a day?
Put out a bowl of extra salty peanuts and crank up the heat. Open a small bar in the corner serving margaritas, mojitos, pina coladas, etc... Sit back and watch the passive income roll in.
putting the "ass" in passive!
Worked in vending for years. You ain't gonna profit off one machine in most cases. Unless you are in a prime location, buying 10 different cases of chips and then trying to sell the 750 or so bags before they expire requires several machines.
This is a capitalistic nightmare, just getting people on interviews to give them false hope just to make money from them. This is a scam.
That’s active income.
Hey! This gentleman won't hit his keyword quota if you keep having that attitude!
