Ask how they know it rings like a bell and, specifically, what type of bell.

Tell me, oh wise one, how can the moon be hollow if it is made from cheese? But you're right about the corn, and it's not just corn either. It's anything non-organic. That includes the cotton in their clothing! Synthetic fabrics are even worse!

Corn is carbon based, so I'm not sure what they're getting at.

There used to be (still is?) a Real Foods near where I lived. I once asked if they carried mineral oil and the clerk very smugly told me that they didn't carry products made from hydrocarbons.
I'm sure my expression was very expressive.

I try hard not to post ironically in BYOB.

It genuinely makes me happy to see people making dumb jokes! It indicates somebody is making an effort to keep things lighthearted even if it comes at the expense of not looking cool anymore.

That should probably go in the jokes thread.

Got so frustrated about an ongoing issue with a customer at work that I got loud (aka yelled) when explaining the history and *why* I was frustrated

Now I'm embarrassed :(

I do love that the response to me getting an offer for a commercial sample of yeast that can sour in tank without contamination with data and commercial examples of products made with said yeast for the price of shipping (~2k yen)and a request for feedback is teeth sucking and "That's going to be difficult! We'll need to check with management!". Especially when the other yeast I've been using is not currently available due to supply chain issues and the sour pitch we'll use in it's place is over 10k yen and is more sour than they'd like. Corporate structure baybeeeeeeee!

Pretty freaked out right now. A keg I was washing just ruptured.


A guy at the Redhook brewery in New Hampshire was killed by a keg rupturing during cleaning like 10 years ago.

Oh holy hell I hope you are ok EFN

Do you get any kind of warning when this happens or is it just an instantaneous thing? :ohdear:

Escape From Noise

Fortunately it didn't like burst really hard and I was standing pretty far from the keg washer. But there's no real warning.

Buttchocks

No, I like my hat, thanks.
I wanted to go buy some flowers this morning but then a client scheduled a meeting, and then rescheduled it twice for later in the morning. So I sat around all morning waiting for a 10 minute meeting to happen and now I want to go back to bed.

glad you're safe EFN!

that sounds incredibly frustrating.

At a beer event this weekend and the restaurant manager is helping today. It's not a huge deal but it's kinda funny how much he just leans into the smoothie sour IPA as a possible sale. It's the only beer he mentions to potential customers.

Escape From Noise

Beer event was mostly good and I think my bosses were able to understand things I was trying to say. I think they may have learned a few things. We'll see. Man I'm tired.

Running a production schedule by committee is going great.

Escape From Noise

It loving rules that me getting a raise is dependent on my beer selling bit management is forever putting off doing outside sales and focusing on one beer to the exclusion of all others, pushing bottle sales at a volume I cannot possibly produce. Also that my production schedule keeps getting started and stopped at random so I'm always behind on my materials orders and the amount of product I can release at a time is severely hampered.

I'm not familiar with the type of thing I'm seeing.
I have to do a "webinar" in a few minutes. 30 minutes of going through a PowerPoint about the stuff I work on to an audience that may or may not include anyone outside of our company. Apparently the previous webinars we've have had zero questions. But we gotta keep going!

All done! Pretty sure we had fewer audience members than we had for the practice session yesterday.

Escape From Noise

Cool. I just got yelled at for asking for time off I'd requested earlier but lost because the production schedule got changed on me again. Definitely time to look for a new job.

I can't deal with this garbage rear end industry anymore. Time to face my failure to make it as a brewer. I guess there's always teaching English.
