    Beer Cart was brought out after the market closed on Fridays... It was usually enough for everyone to have two... some people had one, some had none, others brought the average back to 2 :lol:

    This is a new one for me too. I have never heard of a beer cart at an office. If I had I might have considered another line of work. And in the interview I would have definitely made this statement... "I only have one question for you. Does this job have the benefit of a beer cart?"

    i believe it was budweiser, of maybe busch that had a beer tap in the employee break room

    one of those companies used and might still,...memory is fuzzy....give every employee a case of beer each month....or week....as the case may be

    But the label says "Brewed and Bottled by Goose Island Beer Co., Chicago IL."

    Are they beer people lying to me?

    i know, sweets. i know. i am just floored y'all can have booze on your desk and some of you can even drink beer while working.

    i became a stupid truck driver w/ bad knees and a bad ticker. i shoulda been more into being pampered a bit and chose a inside cushiony type task such as sittin on my balls all day slammin 40s and being like george costanza.

    I love my job now but I do miss my old job where my boss would just come into my office and say "let's go to the bar" and he would treat all the employees to an afternoon of appetizers and booze.

    Those were the days!
    Don't come closer or I'll have to go

    No worries, Chad. I'm pretty sure that if there's any abuse, the beer fridge will go away.

    Looking around at my colleagues, I don't think there will be any abuse.

    I'm not sure they feel the same level of reassurance when they glance my way...

    :?
