If you placed a request for a new blender, for instance, it would probably have been satisfied by the end of your contract

The example is mine.

A friend of mine used to work as a bartender on a cruise ship, and once he said, "There was a lot of outdated equipment aboard, but if you placed a request for a new blender, for instance, it would probably have been satisfied by the end of your contract."

Is it correct to use "would probably have been satisfied" to describe an observation based on a habitual state of affairs? I want it to convey an opinion with a strong conviction based on that person's experience and multiple observations.

Edit: corrected typos.

What does "I friend of mine" mean?

What does "I friend of mine" mean?

Sorry, that's a typo. "A friend of mine used to work as a bartender..."

I'd use 'filled' rather than 'satisfied', but it's otherwise okay.

If you're referring to the blender (or another such item), use "provided" or "supplied". Otherwise, you can use "fulfilled" if you're talking about the request.
