Let's hope they're not using the vat!

It didn't say but I wonder how much they drink?

Its 4 a day. 3 of hich are scheduled and 1 unscheduled. Jim Beam is practically in my back yard. from what the local news has said, there motivation for doing this is actually aimed at people on the assembly line that break away from the line supposedly to use the bathroom but detour to smoke cigarrettes instead. Apparantly this has been a significant problem.

I would think they could come up with another way handle this problem. People are urinating on themselves and picketing the property. I am sure it wont last long.

nomaxim, I was wondering the same thing. I know when I drank Jim Beam, I had to fequent the throne roon regularly

At least we hope that's the only place they're going!

Never drink the stuff so it's hard for me to get too worked up about this issue, frankly. But it kind of makes me wonder, what in the world are these workers doing that they need to go more than four times a day?

I'm pretty sure Clermont, Kentucky is in a dry county. But, JnMHayes, as you get older, your bladder tends to lose its elasticity. Lots of people who aren't drinkers have a need for frequent urination. And if you have a wonky prostate (not uncommon for men of a certain age) or cystitis (not that uncommon for women), you've also got problems.

Companies often try to solve time-management problems with punitive or dangerous responses. The infamous Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire caused so many deaths because the fire exits were locked, to keep workers from taking breaks.

See? That's why I come here, for good bladder advice. LOL!

Myself I'm a heavy drinker at work...
I drink a 20oz pop when I get in (takes maybe an hour lol) and then I'll drink water all night, and maybe a cup of coffee... so NO WAY I could last with only 4 breaks LOL
I have a drinking problem.. is there help!?!?

Although granted working on a line I probably wouldn't drink as much, but sittin' on your butt staring at a monitor is a different story lol
