Beer Job Comes With Great Perks, No Pay

Drinking on this job won't get you fired -- in fact it's required. The Wall Street Journal reports the Four Points by Sheraton hotel chain is looking to fill a newly created post of chief beer officer. The company reports there are more than 5,500 applicants, from 31 countries. But, or course, there's a downside to what might sound like a dream job. There's no salary for the chief beer officer. However, there are plenty of perks such as free hotel stays and a trip to Okotberfest in Munich, Germany. The beer officer gig is primarily a publicity gimmick, but company officials say it may evolve into a more serious position.
