And there's a lot here

They do a lot of maintenance though

Watching some people play arcade games gives me an aneurism

I could never actually own my own arcade

Which kind of arcades?

All of them?

I would throw 80% of my clientele out

For being retarded

Literally all of them, whether it's coin pushers, ticket redemption games, or video games

People just do the stupidest shit

I've pulled hot dogs out of Skee Ball machines

We kicked someone out once for changing their kid's diaper on one of the games

I've seen people insert a credit card into a make a wish pac man donation bill collector

There's nothing like that over here

The skill the average player here has is actually quite high too

Which really makes it obvious when a casual player comes in

I've seen people credit a game that was loudly blaring an error message 17 times because they didn't know it was broken

I was once asked if my arcade had any left handed bowling balls

Because she couldn't use the right handed people ones

I remember fixing a driving game once at a friend's arcade, it was off and a young kid came over and sat down on the seat and put a coin in. The dad came over and yelled "HEY! ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID? CAN'T YOU SEE HE'S WORKING ON IT?!" and physically removed the kid kicking and screaming

painful

Where I work I'd get yelled at by the parent for stealing their money if that happened

haha yeah

I had a guy throw me against a game & threaten to knife me in the parking lot because I stopped his daughter from crediting a game that I had just been told by another guest was broken

She credited it, it didn't work

He then accused me of theft

I believe it, people get extremely aggressive

People are fucking stupid

We had to label all the skee ball lanes because people couldn't figure out which credit line went to witch lane. So they'd credit skee ball #2 and throw all the balls down lane 3

After labeling them people just got more confused and refused to listen to us when we tried to explain they were on the wrong lane

I refuse to believe machines can ever take over my job. Machines can't account for human stupidity.

My route was in a fairly rich area, so my problem was mainly with the store's staff where I had the games more than anything. Totally and 100% inept retards.

I had to go there every other day otherwise I'd find machines off for the dumbest reasons and I'd lose profits

Glad I sold that business

are the "anti-racists" the new "male feminists" https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-44585072?ocid=socialflow_twitter

the ones that end up in teh metoo campaigns

I love the fact that the first time he uses the n word was at a meeting about what words are insensetive.... clearly the man is a biggot! 😛 what utter rubbish... intentions dont matter anymore.. context irrelevant

literally PC eating itself

Being a male feminist is a dogwhistle for rapists

Dont @ me

@Deleted User QA testing a videogame is not exactly the same as QA testing normal software. Videogame testing is indeed soul sucking.
