Beer maker Molson is turning off the tap and cutting off the supply of free suds to its retirees
A 12-pack a week, that's all we ask...From the link:
Molson retirees in the province of Newfoundland will see their monthly allotment of beer fall from six dozen a month to zero over the next five years.
Current workers will see their allotment drop from 72 dozen bottles a year to 52 dozen.
That's a lot of beer! And I thought they say not to get high on your supply.
I just read that . What a perk ! I should have worked for Ernest & Julio !
A 12-pack a week, that's all we ask...
I'm retired. Why was I not advised of this retirement benefit by the Canadian and US government? I have missed a stimulus, have I not?
Oh, "it's retirees" I see it. I guess I'm being discriminated against again for sitting in Texas and having to sip on Lone Star.
The answer used to be 1 or 2 cases (?) per vehicle occupant over 21, and 1 bottle liquor per person.Brador is tops with me ... been a couple years thou. Will be in Prince Edward Island in July. Need to figure how many cases I can drive back with.
Wonder if some retirees will re-enter the work force for thier 52 dozen allotment.
Molson's is what you drink when the store is sold out of real beer.Our Canadian friends should be along shortly and tell us just how serious this is.
My cousin used to work for E&J. They treated him very well. He always had a nicely stocked wine and spirits selection!
I was wondering if their health insurance plan excludes liver disease. Then again, they're based in Canada, so the usual health insurance hassles may not apply.Does Molson have a Defined Benefit pension plan as well? If so, I'd love to talk to their actuary and find out what they are using for their mortality assumption.
