Only in Denmark lol !

Um.

Mr Bekke said Carlsberg drivers claim a "very old right" to have up to three beers per day outside lunch hours.

Surely there's something wrong with that? :confused:

I rank Calsberg about the same as Carling and Fosters.

It's all about Grolsch, 1664 and Cobra :-)

Ahah, passed this on to my Danish friend, she's going to have a good laugh at that

If that was here most of the workforce would be smashed for most of the day.

Read the rest:

He added that Carlsberg's trucks have alcohol locks so drivers would not be able to drink too much and drive.

I took issue with them claiming such a right, despite the dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol.

Reminds me of this for some reason:

"Carlsberg don't do jobs but if they did they would probably be the best jobs in the world... Oh wait they do!!!"

"Yoo much", haha. They can have a few, but as long as they don't have too much then they can carry on driving!

I love Denmark! Such a nice place and really nice people! Stunning women

That is a nation who can drink. That's all I'm saying.

I wondered what that funny taste was and that explains a lot.

Just posted this on facebook and now waiting for my Danish friends to comment.

It's also pretty common here, my company provides free beer on Fridays

For HGV drivers?

Efour · 9 Apr 2010 at 10:28

Heard about this on radio 4 this morning. All the HGVs have breathalysers built in and wont even start unless the driver is clear.

The story becomes quite boring when all the facts are known.

Free beer during the day would be great
