Why do the Squishy machines at Speedway never work right?

There are 4 Speedway stations all about equal distance from my home. I like the Speedy Freeze drink, either by itself or to top off a fountain soda instead of using ice.

9 times out of 10 the machines are not working right. I don’t mean they’re empty, I mean they aren’t freezing properly. It doesn’t matter which station I go to, literally 9 times out of 10 one or more flavors of the frozen drink is unavailable because it’s not freezing properly.

All I get from the people working there is, “those machines suck!”.

D’oh!:smack::rolleyes:
Anyone know what the deal is? In 2012 mankind hasn’t perfected the Squishy machine yet?

If they are like the Slurpee machines I used to work with, then yeah, those machines suck. That’s really an accurate answer. Particularly temperamental when overworked, like hot summer afternoons.
