Congrats on the new job, Gill.

I'd just break even working at a company like Apple - spending as much using my employee discount then they pay me, hah!!

other people already got replacment laptops from the apple stores, these are sent to us from the apple stores to fix and test and such, they probably **********blanked for job security Razz
actually i think they get reused or donated or something, theyre perfectly fine when im done w/ them.

Haha I cant do anything like make the machine pay out a jackpot on the next spin or anything, mainly because all of the machines are controlled by a huge computer in the basement somewhere.

I can however look at the money taken in/money given out ratio and give a rough estimate on when its going to hit. Each machine has to pay out 92%

So basically you can create a list of averages when the thing hits the jackpot, create a general average from there, then estimate when it'll hit again!
Bird, you're about to make a lot of close friends Very Happy

Congrats with the job. What do you do specifically anyways?

My job title is "Floor Attendant" but I spend most of my time going around fixing machines that break. Both software and hardware errors. I also make change for guests and explain to them how to play and what not.

Pretty easy and relaxing job, I make around 14$ an hour so its pretty nice.
