Don’t drink Pepsi if you work for Coca-Cola. Rick Bronson, a driver at a Coca-Cola bottling plant in California found this out when he dared to attempt to consume a rival drink. He wasn’t aware that he was being watched by his bosses. A spokesman declined to comment on Bronson’s case and wouldn’t say whether drinking a rival company’s products was a disciplinary offence. Despite this Rick was apparently fired for drinking Pepsi but insists that he didn’t swallow.
