Most of the people that I met loved what they did. Myself included. The only reason I stopped working for the op was because has no people skills. His business skills were second to none, and he knew a ton about what makes money, and what doesn't. When it came to stuff involving people, whether it be customers or employees, he was sadly lacking in that department. Since I'm still doing repair as a home business now, I keep contact with most of my business contacts from when I was working there. And a lot of them are the operators that own the companies. A lot of the talk concerns what's making money. Guess what isn't making nearly what it used to anymore? |

I've had more than my share of crummy jobs. So if ops are talking about GT not earning, what is? It sounds like you're going to offer up information, but then you don't. |

One guy filled a crane machine full of those spikey-inflated balls and said he was making money hand-over-fist. Games like Stacker are immensely popular (though they're rigged, and it even states so in the manual!). Don't get me wrong, Golf and the like still earns, but not like it was. Once upon a time you put a GT machine in a good bar and you'd bring in $1000 a week - easy - if not more. Now you're lucky if you can pay off the machine. Music still earns very well. Digital jukes especially. People love the selection available. And they pay a premium for it. |
