Craft Brewery Job

So I got a second interview for a Craft Brewery Job. Anyone have any experience brewing or this line of work? Only brewing experience I have ever had was when I was a teen a poisoned myself by setting a jug of welches grape juice in my basement with a balloon over it and got seriously fucking ill for 24 hours
You should had smelled the fucking rotten yeast I was vomiting up and shitting out my ass.

if you are really interested and not just a basement barfer of the welches...then you will succeed at anything
you want to brew? then brew

all i saw was your hate being catholic thread title
can't blame you
people involved in organized religions seem to be getting it wrong all over the world right now
maybe all the world's leaders should make them all cook a meal together in the middle of nowhere for 2 weeks, and join them
it would be a great reality show...maybe our last

its fun. if you get in with the right people you can make a name for yourself as a brewer. sounds like a great career if you ask me.

You have no brewing experience so you won't be doing anything that involves making beer. What position are you interviewing for? Most likely they'll throw you on the bottling line which will be just as bad as any factory job. Either that or a bus boy in the brewpub.

I definitely got drunk, but I was sooo fucking sick. It wasnt a hang over either. It ended after 24 hours but I have no idea what the fuck I drank toxin wise. It stank so fucking bad. I kid you not rotten yeast coming out of both ends, it smelled fucking horrible
Anyone have any ideas for what may had gotten me sick?

Its for a cellerman position. Basically ya, cleaning the tanks, bottling 22 oz beer beer, maybe milling some ingredients but ya got to start somewhere right?
I have a second interview today. I told them if I cant get 40 hours a week, im not interested. I got a call 2 hours later saying the owner would like to meet me so he can see if Im the right guy for the job. Ill keep ya updated

Sounds better than sanitation work that you were thinking about initially...

Ya I turned it down. I felt bad just accepting it only to fuck them over in a month when I find another job.
To me it sounded fun. I would had gotten a golf cart to ride in and walkey talkies

I got a third interview! Now I have to meet with the brewer who I am gonna be working under. Im so excited man, assuming he likes me I should be hired. Both the head brewer and the owner of the brewery really liked me. Im so fucking excited man. I miss working so much. Being a lazy, penniless dude who sits at home all day is depressing as fuck.

Yeah I'm in Atlanta and the market is pretty competitive here as well. I think I'll land it though. I'm generally pretty good in interviews. I'm just tired of being a broke bitch and having my girlfriend keep my afloat while I figure shit out because frankly, she's broke as fuck too.

Thats whats going on with me! Shes always trying to convince me to go on trips or out to eat when she is gonna have to pay for everything. Im like "I dont even have a job yet women". She just says "My treat!"
I dont know man, Im mildly old fashion when it comes to females

Wow spot fucking on. My girl is always like, "I know you wanna go somewhere and watch the game, pitchers on me!" or, "lets go out tonight!" and I usually respond with.. "Okay, but with what money?"

I got the job! The pay is horrible, but for a guy who has ZERO experience in the brew industry at least its a foot in the door! Ill be working under one of the brewers. It sounds like an opportunity to gain some experience in this....which I really need since all I can do is cook a bad ass pizza. Its full time too, so at least there is that, and bankers hours with my weekends off
20800 a year. Or 10/hr. I seriously have no idea why there were 3 interviews for a job that pays so low. All that was missing was a lie detector test Still I am very happy. I cant stand staying at home anymore, its driving me nuts. A man can only play so much counterstrike, drink so much tea and use so much tobacco before he gets depressed as hell man. HURRAY ME!
