One of my jobs when I worked in Montana was working on the production line at Big Hole Brewary in Belgrade right by the Bozeman airport. My shift was from 7:00AM to around 3:00PM. We rotated positions every 45 minutes or so. The first step was putting bottles on the assembly line..I could comfortably do 4 bottles at a time with each hand although my first day or two...I definitely had butterfingers and dropped a few which provided me job security later on when I sweeped up the broken glass. A more skilled employee ran the bottling machine...then the beer was put into 6-pack containers and then the cases by hand..then the cases were taped up...stacked on pallets..then moved to another room with either a pallet jack or forklift. Pay was only $7 an hour but we got to take home all the low fills. Nothing wrong with an 11 ounce bottle..lol.,and each day there was at least 12-18 beers worth of low fills per person..and we were encouraged to take them with us. We were also allowed to drink beer on the job and there was always music blasting..not top 40 crap but Jedi Mind Tricks, Wu-Tang Clan, old school rap like the Ghetto Boyz, and even Techno. I had this job late summer/early fall of 2003..after my stint at TNT fireworks and before the ski season. I remember a September morning when there was snow in the Bridgers for the first time of the season...
Everyday after work I'd hit up Town and Country market or Pork Chop Johns for some wings or Subway or somewhere and then go back to my place and drink some beer and share it with my roommates...then take whatever leftover beer I had to a friends house and I'd usually get free food and Sugar Free Red Bull in exchange for the Big Hole beer. Then the next morning I'd wake up at 6:30AM, hungover and do it all again..Definitely broke times for me but it was hella fun..
