  • Tragic Waste of Beer

    Been a while since I posted on the boards, but here's a funny little story from work this past week.

    So I'm working on register, more or less the only register open (which is par for the course for me, these days), and over at the CS desk, there was my coworker-- whom I shall call "Not Scarface," given her similarities to Ol' Scarface have waned lately.

    So this case of Sam Adams beer got either left behind or something, it needed to be re-shopped. NS picks it up to move it to the re-shop cart... when the bottom of the case fell open and most of the bottles fell out and shattered on the floor. Beer and broken glass went EVERYWHERE. NS was fine, no injuries, just beer soaking her shoes. No one else got cut by the glass either as clean-up started.

    Of course, that area smelled like beer for the rest of the day, and there were many comments about the "tragedy" that happened, "all that beer just... gone."

    Later in the day, NS gets into a brief little argument with another coworker about something or other, and I happen to be nearby when it goes down. I couldn't resist the urge to tease her.

    J2K: "Why are you getting so belligerent?" *sniff sniff* "Have you been drinking?!"
    NS:

    I teased her the rest of the day about it. "You can't drive home!" "Why not?" "You're drunk!" And I've told her I'll be teasing her forever about it. She's a good sport about it.

    .... Plaidman works by selling beer. He still does not get the the greatness of it. It taste horrible. It smells horrible. And people seem to think the only way to be cool, or to have fun, is to drink that crapjuice.

      Bleh, the amount of booze I've destroyed over the last two years this no longer phases me to be honest!
      A PSA, if I may, as well as another.

        I love the taste of beer.

        And I don't need it to be cool or have fun....I'm just naturally that way.

          Beer? Pee-you.

          I tried beer a couple of times and I ended up gagging on it. Never again, I say!

              Then call me a heretic, that stuff is nastiness in a battle/can. Every time I try it I end up asking if anyone else wants it and getting myself a different drink.

                Some like it some don't. A friend of mine hates beer but likes Disaronno or whatever it's called.

                Meh.

                  I just plain can't stand any taste of Alcohol. I don't understand how people can guzzle it like nothing.

                  I don't understand how people keep doing it til their pissing their pants, and laughing at everything.


                  I don't understand how they get so drunk they sleep with strangers and not know it in the morning.


                  Whatever. It doesn't matter. It'll never change. I just roll my eyes at people whenever they start crying over destroyed beer. (Or if I run out of beer. Which I had happen once to Pabst. Poor man broke down and wailed).

                    Beer is an acquired taste, I hated it for a LONG time...now it's one of my drinks of choice. (The others being Rum, Tequila, and Scotch).


                    Disaronno isn't bad, just mix it with Cream Soda... comes out INCREDIBLY sweet, but good.

                      Some people can't stomach the taste of it, my mother being one of them.

                      Most of us that do like it, don't do the stuff you mentioned though. Those people are morons.

                          well, in all fairness, one post itself doesn't really count as hijacking.

                            Over Pabst? That's a step below Coors Light on the pisswater scale.

                              So yeah. My customers are always drunk. Always loving beer, are obsessive over it.

                              Then again this is Portland, and I'm just a freak.
