Bottle Jugglin'
I just want everyone to know that because of my help, there are now approximately 66,000 more beautiful beer bottles in this world.
Yes, that is correct. I have spent these past four days flipping cases of boring and drab beer bottles onto a conveyor belt where a machine magically paints wonderful images of bicycles, men with their fists pumped into the air, and salmon fish swimming through leaves on them.
It was actually kind of cool because this machine is the ONLY one in America. It can process thousands of bottles an hour...and it can print a label 360 degrees onto the bottle.
Now, as fun and cool as that may be, I was not really doing anything fun. I started my ten hour days at 5:00 am and was simply flipping cases of beer bottles onto a conveyor belt the whole time. I started out only being able to flip one case at a time. However, as the hours flew by and the skills came about, I switched to flipping two boxes at once.
By the morning of the third day, I officially became a three-box-flipper. I know. I know. You are all so jealous...but not everyone has the skills to flip three cases of empty beer bottles onto a conveyor belt.
It is the weekend for me now, though. And a long one at that! I have Friday, Saturday, Sunday AND Monday (Labor Day) off. What am I going to do with myself?
Tomorrow I get my first real paycheck in THREE YEARS!
NO JOKE! I am going to buy everyone a pony. (Hopefully I worked enough for that!)
You.
Are.
Fantastic.
And I love your smile.
