    Not for you Brandon, I bet the pay is not too good especially for a three year clutch man.

    brandon,

    until you earn your stripes (doing good over a sustained period of time), you're probably not going to get paid in the alcohol ranks unless you are full time help.

    keep in mind, in the alcohol ranks, your pay is experience and knowledge learned.

    i've always had my expenses covered, but then again, on a college student budget, i really don't have a choice.

    Brandon all jokes aside you should consider yourself lucky to get to be part of something like an alcohol team, I know there are millions of people who would pay to get a chance like that, I mean look at all the places you get to travel, people you meet and the things you learn along the way. I for one would gladly do those things for "no pay". But thats just how I see it,which doesnt mean much.

    good luck to all

    Guy, Don't give it another thought. The kid sounds like an ungrateful Sh.. From the sounds of it, you do the same (and possibly more) as most teams I know. Keep up the good work.
