energy drinks

A couple days ago, I received an e-mail bulletin at work that had made its way down through the grapevine. It actually started out with a client at another district before reaching the regional managers and then getting filtered back down to the district level. The subject was energy drinks. Most people are probably familiar with the names Red Bull and Monster and that those are basically beverages of choice for idiots loading up on caffeine. The bulletin concerned beverages of a similar vein like Liquid Charge, Sparks, Tilt, and Mickey's Stinger. Apparently, a random inspection turned them up in the lockers of a rig crew in California. The difference between those and the more mainstream brands is that those four all contain alcohol along with caffeine. Nothing quite like knowing the people you work with might be juiced on caffeine but ready to crash and crash hard at any moment.
