The other day I got a machine in to the shop that looked pretty nice. Turns out, not so much. It eventually ended up on eBay for parts/repair. I was pretty happy about that, because this machine and I got off on the wrong foot.
This is a wrapping system. You put in a tray of raw meat and it wraps, seals, weighs, prices and tags the package. Very spiffing.
The side panel was off when I got it, so I had a peek inside. Okay, some excess stretch film, not unexpected . . .
Squat down and look in the window on the lower part of the machine, more stretch film . . .
Hey, what's that over there on the left? Let's grab a flashlight and have a little looky-poo . . .

OH! zOMGWTFGROSS!!!!11!!!
That right there is just wrong. It looks like what used to be 1/2 pound of animal flesh, mummified by the cool air of the meat packing area. Icky. In order to protect the reputation of Walmart, I won't say where this machine used to be in service.
Oh, and it stank when the sealer warmed up. Like warm fat.
