Mr. Ambassador

Post by Chimneyfish »

The place I work for created a little side job that would involve traveling to beer tastings to try new beers coming onto the market, or representing the company at breweries. It'd be around one trip per month and they reimburse very well for travel mileage. The second best part about this is that the official name for the position is the "Beer Ambassador". The best part is that they chose me to do it.

More bragging to come later..

This is yet more proof that god still has love for mankind. Not only does an awesome job like this exist, it comes with quite possibly the coolest title as well.

Sounds like a lot of work. You should hire an assistant.
I'll miss you, pallie.

Are you sure, Mr. Chimney, that you have a sophiscated enough pallete to judge the quality of new beers? I would strongly suggest that, in the best interest of your employer, you travel to the promised Beer Ambassor tastings with a court of ne'er-do-wells who have but one diplomatic skill--that of swilling and/or chilling. Drunkards without portfolio, if you will.
If I had a nickel for every time I drank too much, I'd buy another case.

You suck.

I will be your executive assistant. You won't even have to pay me. Really. Not in money.
