Looks like the MSM got their talking points. "The boycott is hurting the little guy and it's all your fault!" Strangely I don't feel guilty. Must be something wrong with us customers.

I feel for the dealers. As for Transheuser Busch, eff them now, eff them tomorrow, and eff them until their very molecules pop out of existance. Die, die, die. Oh, make that suffer, suffer more, die, die, die. And take your beer with you, you spineless Dorkbamaholes.

AB was once like winning the sales lottery. They show up, write down $20,000 order and earn a couple hundred dollars for one store and they might do 10 or 15 stores in a day.

There aren’t many sales jobs that you can earn $300,000 or $400,000/yr just by being willing to show up for work.

I imagine that restaurants have contracts. When they can, they will change the contracts. When large chains decide to cut off AB InBev entirely (e.g. Pizza Hut restaurants, Longhorn Steakhouse, Olive Garden, Outback, Texas Roadhouse, etc.) the losses will be permanent. Because AB InBev and Miller-Coors are practically a duopoly in the U.S., there’s not even a way to have a merger or buyout to try to press reset.

I worked at Pizza Hut in 1982, when we replaced Miller Lite with Bud Light and it pretty much stayed there ever since. Forty-one years was a nice run.

These guys should go to a sports bar and offer to buy a round of Bud Lights. Then update their resume.

ā€ slashed the income of salespeopleā€

Perhaps next time the head office sends you a sales pack with such offensive material you will send it back.....

Or were you offended?
Did you think all the giblits would give you a commission bump?
Were none of you in the loop for potential promotional adds and such?
give me a break.....

They should sue Alissa "Mrs. Ed" Heinerscheid, the VP of Bud Light marketing who created this catastrophe. You've seen her. She looks like Mr. Ed's wife.

Young men don’t want to be seen sucking on a BudLight bottle.

But, they have delivered beer to GIBLET events, such as drag shows and Pride parades (knowing children would be present), and set up the A/B Bud Light Pride displays in stores, all without a complaint over the past few years. I have little sympathy for them. It’s obvious they support such a decadent narrative. Otherwise, they would have looked for work elsewhere selling something that wasn’t representative of such evil and decadence.
