Teamsters Union Brews Up 100,000 Signatures to Make Beer-Thirty a National Holiday
In a frothy blend of hops and hope, the Teamsters Union has officially submitted a barrel of 100,000 signatures to Congress, petitioning to make Beer-Thirty a national holiday. The union has deemed this historic effort โThe Great American Brew-Out.โ It aims to ferment unity across the nation by recognizing the sacred time of day when workers traditionally pause to enjoy a cold one: Beer-Thirty.
Jim Hopsman, the newly appointed Teamstersโ Director of Malty Affairs, spearheaded the campaign. โItโs about recognizing the working man and womanโs right to unwind,โ Hopsman stated, cracking open a symbolic first beer in front of the Capitol. โWeโve worked long. Weโve worked hard. Itโs time we worked smartโand that means institutionalizing Beer-Thirty.โ
The proposed national holiday would ensure that every American of legal drinking age would be entitled to one paid hour off every day. That time would occur precisely at Beer-Thirty, letting them enjoy a beer or beverage of their choosing. โItโs a celebration of our shared values: liberty, fraternity, and the pursuit of hoppiness,โ Hopsman added, amidst cheers from a crowd donning foam beer hat caps.
Critics argue that the measure could have intoxicating effects on productivity. However, proponents counter that the initiative will boost morale and foster a hoppier work environment. โItโs simple,โ one supporter slurred passionately, โBeer-Thirty transcends time zones. Itโs always Beer-Thirty somewhere, and thatโs a holiday worth toasting to.โ
Details of the Proposed Beer-Thirty Bill
The proposed bill, dubbed โThe Bubbly Bill of Rights,โ outlines the logistics of observing Beer-Thirty. It grants every citizen the liberty to choose their beverage or brew. Provisions ensure a diverse selection that represents the melting pot of American beer culture. Cited recommendations include everything from light lagers for those who prefer a mild celebration, to robust stouts for the stout-hearted.
In anticipation of the holidayโs approval, breweries across the nation have already begun concocting special edition Beer-Thirty brews. These range from the โDeclaration of Inebriationโ IPA to the โFounding Fathersโ Ferment.โ The latter represents a beer crafted using ingredients sourced exclusively from the original 13 colonies.
The petition now sits in Congress, fermenting amidst a legislative process that often mirrors the brewing cycle itselfโslow and complex. Meanwhile, the Teamsters Union remains hopeful. โThis isnโt about just kicking back,โ Hopsman declared, โitโs about pouring a foundation for a happier, more united countryโone beer at a time.โ
