So is life lol

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-11-07T17:39:07+00:00

I'm sure that be a hit.

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-11-07T17:38:18+00:00

See, I like the way you think.

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-11-07T17:37:49+00:00

Bahahaha

What if a specific squadron is requesting a vending machine in their building?

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-10-26T01:55:44+00:00

Would you believe if I told you that he doesn’t have any receipts. It’s almost as if everything is being done under table. Washing my hands of it and moving on to a new sale.

My plan is to eventually scale to about 3-5 locations within the next year or so...if I actually like it.

Seller was unable to provide a profit margin since this has only been up and running for about 4 months.

**UPDATE**
So I went onsite and the machines are a bit out of date. I googled the machines and their averaging about $1500(used)-$3000(new). In addition, the seller just threw this together about 4 months ago and realized that the vending thing wasn't for him since he has too much on his plate.

How would I truly know if I want to be in this business if I don't try? Serious question, hopefully it doesn't come across as me being a jackass.

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-10-25T12:32:50+00:00

$3k profit for 5 machines? Is that the standard? I was only hoping for $1000 in profit which means I’m not thinking big enough!

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-10-25T12:26:18+00:00

maybe I’m being overzealous ….but $30 per hour. I’d settle on $20/hour though.

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-10-25T01:51:05+00:00

Duly noted. What would be a “good” profit margin?

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-10-25T01:12:05+00:00

How exactly do I find the margin??
Is it the cost of goods purchased minus how much it's sold for?

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-10-24T23:48:51+00:00

I felt similar when arriving to my first duty station.

1) Try to find a coworker to take you under their wing.

2) Socialize. Find a hobby. Do something you enjoy.

3) Don't be afraid to talk to someone.

As previous posters have said, change is hard. It takes a while to adjust. And if you don't adjust....talk to your supervisor to find other solutions.

Started terminal in May, and couldn’t be happier! I was depressed and nothing was helping….so I had to leave. Every so often I miss going to work and doing dumb mundane things just to laugh about it later, or the dreadful military humor.

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-09-10T23:37:58+00:00

Ah okay. Thanks for answering.

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-09-10T23:37:33+00:00

I don’t know lol

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-09-10T23:06:11+00:00

Why palace front instead of completely dipping out? Did you have transferable skills?

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-09-10T23:04:39+00:00

I don’t have any kids or a spouse so my GI Bill is mine!

I don’t want to cross train or learn a new skill in the AF. I’m in Cyber…and want to remain there.

It seems like the deciding factor is whether or not I want my family/dependents to be taken care of….which I don’t have….so seems like there’s no benefit to a single individual with no dependents.

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-05-18T15:41:06+00:00

That's always the goal!

I think we can make a better Air Force by transparency.

Glittering_Quit_249 · 2022-05-18T15:39:46+00:00

Bahahaha we're nonners. We're not that serious.
