I am. My company distributes Monster drinks and I get free drinks almost every morning before I hit the road in my beer truck. My favorite is the original green Monster, although I love Red Bull. Especially if it's mixed with some Jagermeister. I drink a Monster every morning before I leave the house. It's my "morning coffee", since I detest the taste of actual coffee.

Red bull gives you wings. no expression

Beer truck? Do you have a CDL?

Or is it something smaller?

Yes, I have my Class A CDL. I drive a beer truck for Anheuser-Busch.

I've never seen it here in Texas. Yet, I've heard of it. Is it good?

Energy drinks, blech. The only one I can tolerate the taste of is those Java Monsters, because they taste like coffee. Though regular coffee is cheaper and neither give me any energy so there's little point in buying an energy drink.

I dunno where you live, but here in Texas, it's pretty easy to get if you are hired on with a company that will let you use one of their combination trucks to take your road test in.

You have to take 2 tests: A written test and a road test. The written test is the real b*tch here. I had to take my written test 4 damn times before I passed. The road test was cake. All you need to remember is to watch your mirrors and take wide turns. I make $700 a week now. It's not bad money.

how can it be Gassy or sweet for that matter?

We also distribute Java Monsters. Personally, I don't like them because I'm just not a coffee drinker. I especially despise Starbucks. stick out tongue

Yeah, I need to find a company willing to do some training. I've got some friends with a truck, but they don't trust me. YET.

I work 5 days a week, and get every weekend off. I have to be at work every morning by 6:15 a.m. for morning meeting. I usually have a helper, but if I don't, it's no skin off of my nuts. The only holidays I have off, however, are Thanksgiving and X-Mas.

Also, my loads are usually under 800 cases of beer. It might sound like a lot, but after you gain some muscle from this job, and you WILL, it gets easier.

I honestly don't have the funds to build up an addiction, they're freakin' expensive compared to unhealthy soda.

I agree. I guess that I'm unlucky enough to have a free outlet for this shit. droolio

Seriously, Java Monsters are like $3 per can. That's a lot ermm

I get them occasionally while at work and that's it.

Bottles of water also seem to be a little bit off the price range as well... Why...?

Impediment
I drink tap water. F*ck it, I say.

You must live somewhere lucky then, the tap water around here destroys teeth and braincells.

I don't know what Jacope is talking about, Cocaine energy drink is NOT sweet. It's actually kind of spicy going down. Gives you tons of energy too. When I was working 12 hours shifts at work I'd be bouncing off the walls all night long off of one can.

However, 180 is my favorite energy drink.

I've honestly never heard of the Cocaine energy drink.

I Wiki'd it. It seems kinda popular.

I Wiki'd it. It seems kinda popular. It's alright. The thing about energy drinks is that they get you jittery and give you quite a boost, but when it runs out, you just wanna crash.

Sparks is my favorite.

I don't drink energy drinks but I like Vault and Snickers. Energy!! Haha! eek!

I rehydrate on water and Gaterade.

Monster is my fave

I can't handle energy drinks. I had a red bull once and it made me sick to my stomach. I got all hyped up but when it was all over I felt nauseous and sweaty....I had to lay down for several hours because my head was killing me. I'm really more of a coffee drinker.

Java Monsters are good. I like Full Throttle the best though.

But I'm not addicted to energy drinks, no.

I breath bottled air. It costs a bundle. I'm addicted to breathing, but can't afford to do anything else. I'm afraid to breathe 'normal' air, because the local Tap water-- I mean Tap air is unhealthy.

I've never been addicted, I just love em to bits.

Also, I'd like to complain about the poll.

Lucozade, Relentless?

I mentioned "other", didn't I?

Fail.

Whatever happened to good ol' fashion Gatorade? It' both, revitalizes and re-hydrates.

electrolytes r good

Impediment
F*ck Gatorade and Powerade.

I want Ginseng and Taurine.

RevoWution™©®
Powerade. Wouldn't touch any of the other energy drinks.

ragesRemorse
If you want heart palpitations then, yeah you're right.

manoy
Rock Star > any other drink.

I don't drink energy drinks often at all, I would have something like Lucozade to boost my sugar levels or if I'd been ill to help get my energy back. If I need to be alert and awake I would choose Irn Bru 32.

Kelly_Bean
Full Throttle: Fury and Bawls.

If I could drink nothing for the rest of my life except those two, I'd do it. Of course my life would be shortened greatly by that. erm

Clovie
voted other and that is coke. normal.

steverules
I like my red bull with vodka, makes me reeeeeally happy

Sweet Escape
I don't like them, but I'm gonna need them to get me through school! messed
