Do you think a firing is fair for not drinking Bud? - Chupa Chupa - 02-07-2007
DENVER - Ross Hopkins still likes to drink Bud, even though he says a brief tryst with a Coors beer cost him his job at a Budweiser distributor.
Hopkins, 41, is suing American Eagle Distributing Co., saying the company wrongly fired him for drinking Coors in a bar two years ago.

I think drinking either of those horse-piss beers should be a firing offense.
Okay, maybe not a firing offense, but certainly a cry for help...

I can't believe the courts would allow that.
Its bad enough that we're expected to stay with one woman. Now one beer? No thanks!

There's always a story behind the story.

When I worked for PepsiCo, drinking Coke would get you fired. A guy I worked with kept his in his desk drawer in a brown paper bag and would open the drawer, drink, close the drawer during lunch. I was never a Pepsi guy, always a coke guy, but only drank pepsi there. I actually learned to like it . But, have given up soft drinks for a svelt physique now.

Think diet pop. It takes a little getting used to but now I will only drink Diet Pepsi and Coke. They got the caffeine and that is what I want. Regular soft drinks now taste too sugary to me and I never drink them
