RE: Mort the Shit Manager: Tripe & Gizzard Flavour

in Writing Club13 days ago

One of the few perks of the job was free Coffee and Tea Bags. You needed to boil the water in the Victorian tea urn, and milk was also provided. The Coffee was that Nescafe shit in the brown jar, that's still doing the rounds today.

No more than one cup a day, and only after Mort got his. We had to wait until the 15 minute break (a clocking in and out affair) to get ours, around 10.30am.

Sort:  

Yeah, that Nescafé nonsense was horrible! We had the same but we had more breaks and more coffees. I am amazed I still like coffee after all that

Coffee has come on a lot, and beer too. The slop I used to drink..., Harp, Kestrel, Skol, Carling, Fosters... it was all fucking terrible.. all of it!. Now we have Beer-Man and Costa...,lets hail to a decent drink!

I used to love Carling!!

I had done recently and I was like what the fuck is this swill?!

Hehe, I went to the beer man during the week. His old shop and everything. It was like COVID was just a bad dream

Hehe, I went to the beer man during the week. His old shop and everything.

Does that mean his shop.. and more importantly.. him.. are still there? An impartial beer review coming?

There might be! I have a backlog of stories to put up but my lack of photo editor on my phone is pissing me right off. Fucking android shagged me up the arse with my new phone, grr

"I used to love Carling!!"

Not a big beer fan then :D

Haha, paradoxically I am but back in my youth I drank any old shit thinking it was good!
