Brewery Workers Strike: No More Drinking On Job
April 9, 2010
We can’t tell if this story is funny…or hilarious:
“Scores of Carlsberg workers walked off their jobs in protest Thursday after the Danish brewer tightened laid-back rules on workplace drinking and removed beer coolers from work sites, a company spokesman said.
The warehouse and production workers in Denmark are rebelling against the company’s new alcohol policy, which allows them to drink beer only during lunch hours in the canteen. Previously, they could help themselves to beer throughout the day, from coolers placed around the work sites.
The only restriction was ‘that you could not be drunk at work’.”
Around 800 workers walked off the job because they can no longer keep beer coolers all over the factory floor and drink beer all day while they worked. They can now only drink at lunch time, in the cafeteria.
We’ve decided: That’s hilarious!

Same ting append in Montreal at the Molson Brewery.
In fact worker were aloud to drink as much as they can and were given a 24 each week.
They later decided to stop the drinking at work because guy wiould get into accident with the fork-lift and falling into elevator shatf.
Budget were cut and employer and retired employee saw there <> 24 cut back to one every 2 weeks to 1 a month and none for the retired one.
A radiohost made a very smart remarke (Jian that’s you)
With the economy and all the fraud what price can you put on a 24 of beer. It does’nt loose its value over time.
That sounds familiar from another book of yours. The lawsuit about the drunk beer worker who got fired from the brewery.
