On Friday, July 3, at some point during the day, I’ll be slinging soda from a random root beer barrel. If you find me, say hello, and I’ll buy you a soda.
No, I’m not moonlighting on OnMilwaukee.com. Instead, I am doing research for OnMilwaukee.com’s latest series of articles, "Shift Switch." For the next year or so, the OnMilwaukee.com writers will work other jobs -- most of which are "very Milwaukee" in some way -- and write about the experience. For example, Senior Editor Drew Olson made burgers at George Webb and served beer at Summerfest.
As long as it's not disgustingly hot, I am looking forward to working the barrel. Who knows, maybe I’ll discover that "soda jerk" is my true calling.
Pepsi, anyone?
