6157 is on its way.......


So I went to the hot chocolate machine to get some hot chocolate. This is by far the most detailed hot beverage machine i have ever met. It was almost like a car wash. First you insert your money, they you have to choose the "strength" of your beverage by pushing one of three buttons, then you can add "whitener" in case your coffee is too black for you (racist!!)-- side note, the spanish below "whitener" is leche, which is spanish for milk. not sure why the machine didnt say milk in english. I also wonder why the machine didnt say whitener in spanish, is the hot beverage machine misrepresenting this choice to the spanish speaking population? Does one receive "whitener" or milk?

Anyway, the other interesting thing that happened was the little computer window let me know that "drink 6157 is on its way! ............". this was very reassuring and comforting. I was only hoping that drink 6157 was indeed the hot chocolate I requested with no whitener/leche and the correct strength. And it was!

I got a lot for my 60 cents today.
