Don't Quit Your Day Job
A Superior Court judge in Brazil ruled in favor of a former employee of a brewery worker who sued his employer for alcoholism. The countries largest brewery, Brahma, was ordered to pay a former employee $30,000.00 in damages plus a lifetime pension equal to his monthly salary of $2,500 a month. Apparently, after leaving the company in 1992, he figured his alcoholism was caused by his former employer and sued in 1996. He claimed the brewery made him drink 13-17 pints of beer every day, but now has switched brands and prefers Cachaca exclusively.
