Quarters are taken from the changer and used in the washers and dryers. Then they're taken out of the coinboxes and put back in the changer. Circle of life, you say. My laundromat customers are quick to point out how these...

f o o k i n   a r s e h u r l e s  

...are TAKING money out of our closed loop system.

However, my customers are...

f o o k i n   d o n k e y s 

...because they don't realize that I need people to take money out of the system to account for people who bring quarters from home to do laundry with.

If people didn't ruthlessly -steal- our quarters, I would have to take excess quarters to the bank even more often than I already do.

Don't be a donkey that hassles people who come in just for quarters.
