The Plan
This foolproof plan was engineered over at the ad agency Arnold Worlwide. There, a traditional vending machine has been transformed into a beer dispensing at work robot super power, which is referred to affectionately as “Arnie”. The traditional bill and coin receivers have been removed in favor of a touchscreen and radio-frequency reader. This allows fob-carrying employees to be greeted by name.
There is a catch
You can’t feed your employees just any beer, you have to feed them the best. Arnie is stocked up with bottles of beer brewed by the employees. That’s right my friends homebrew (kind of). Inside there are six styles of brew which were brewed by Arnold Worldwide employees at the do-it-yourself microbrewery named Barleycorn’s.
How much should you charge your employees?
Nothing! It’s free! (Although it’s not entirely clear if Arnold Worldwide picks up the tab at the microbrewery to actually make the brew). Each employee is allowed 3 beers a month from Arnie. The beer is theoretically available 24hrs to the employees, but it is not to be consumed until after the work day. Everything is tracked by a Mac minicomputer and amazingly no one has “slipped up” and consumed any of the brews during the work day.

P.S. if my manager is reading this I’m definitely on lunch break.

ReplyDeleteMe too! We would have to lobby for more than 3 beers a month though. Instead of trying to bum cigarrettes, I would be trying to bum beers.
