I'm getting paid 375 bucks to drink beer.

Well not really beer per se. more specifically it's Miller Light but I'm still getting paid for it. I have to go every day for ten days and drink a pint of some unknown beer. It's one of those market research things where companies try to determine what new product is the most acceptable to the widest range of ~~idiots~~ people. Today I had the most horrible beer I've ever had save for Fosters' (Sorry Mike). It was all carbonation and no flavor. It was horrible.

As with most things, it was a case of right place, right time.

I heard on the radio some company in Switzerland was looking for someone to go around the world tasting chocolate. To see which kinds were the best and how to make more flavorful chocolate and stuff. The person had to "be willing to do lots of travelling". I mean, seriously, that is my dream job. I'd drop everything I was doing right now if someone offered me that. Too bad I don't live in Switzerland.

Oh and congrats on the job! I've heard they're offering 500 bucks for people willing to have their wisdom teeth taken out using experimental anesthesia...I'm all about it. Pain shmain, man
