Here’s a job opportunity as a “Chief Grilling Officer”…..

June 13 (UPI) — The makers of Reynolds Wrap announced they are seeking someone willing to spend two weeks getting paid to travel the country eating barbecue.

The company said the “Chief Grilling Officer” will receive $10,000, plus pre-paid travel and lodging costs, to travel the country for two weeks in August while “tasting and savoring BBQ ribs from some of the top BBQ rib cities in the country.”

The person will be responsible for sharing photos, techniques and grilling tips on the Reynolds Kitchen website.

The job posting said applications, composed of a photo of the candidate grilling with 100 words on why they are qualified for the position, are being accepted through Wednesday.

On second thought, perhaps this promotion was not a great idea…..

(Reuters) – A Miami bar that offered customers “free shots” for every goal scored by the United States at the Women’s World Cup has scaled back its offer in the wake of the team’s record-breaking 13-0 thrashing of Thailand this week.

The American Social Bar & Kitchen used its social media page for the promotion, clearly not expecting the U.S. to rack up the tournament’s biggest-ever win in their opening game in Reims, France on Tuesday.

The rampant U.S. team, a traditional powerhouse of women’s football, face unfancied Chile on Sunday but thirsty Florida customers should not be expecting another night of multiple free shots and will have to settle for a single drink.

“Our ‘free shots’ promotion is not meant to be taken literally, especially when records are shattered,” a furiously back-pedalling Paul Greenberg, one of the managing partners at American Social, said in an email to Reuters.

“No one expected this, so instead of passing around shots, we have welcomed our patrons back for a round on us during the match against Chile on Sunday.”

The bar is a favorite meeting place for the local chapter of the U.S. soccer supporters group, the American Outlaws.
