St. Patrick’s Day is coming up next week and the fact that it’s on a Friday this year makes it that much better. So, instead of just hitting the bars after work to celebrate, one alcohol brand is trying to entice folks into skipping work altogether that day. Jameson Irish Whiskey will help one lucky winner make up the money they’d miss by not working with a $10-thousand prize.
They’re having a SPTO contest, as in St. Patrick’s Day Time Off and here’s how it works:
- First of all, to enter, you’ll need to be at least 21 years old.
- And you’ll need to be out of the office and in the bars between 3p.m. and 4p.m. on Friday, March 17th.
- That’s when Jameson will video call one lucky drinker who’s out celebrating the holiday and give them $10-thousand.
- To help make sure you don’t get caught for dipping out early on St. Patty’s Day, you can even buy a special customizable, life-size cutout version of yourself. The Jameson Desk Decoys are available online and can stand in for you at work so you can hit the bar and start drinking whiskey.
