People payed to drink beer and payed in beer.

In ancient day Mesopatamia many people were payed in beer, because back then it was quite a valuable resource. But today around the world, you can be payed to drink beer, in places like Berlin, Germany. Many people say that being payed to drink beer is the holy grail of jobs, and I bet that back in ancient mesopataimia they probably thought that getting payed in beer was pretty amazing. It funny how it has changed from people being payed in beer, to people being payed to drink beer. In my news letter about people being payed to drink beer, he was talking about how after a while it was getting boring and he started to not enjoy his job, and I bet in ancient Mesopataimia the people that were payed in beer also became tiered of being payed in beer even though it was a valuable resource, because thats all they got for their job, no money, just beer. Both ancient mesopatamia and today we all celebrate with beer and all enjoy it, but we don't enjoy it enough to be payed to drink it or to be payed in it. You are meant to enjoy beer, and I think that if you drank it all the time or were payed in it you would become tiered of it. Beer is something that we have had for a long time, and it is something that is very important to man kind, and will be for a long time. That is a connection between a thing today and ancient mesopatamia.                

Ps. When I say "we", I mean people who are able to drink beer, and that they are over the age of 21.
