I get drunk at work

Postby SamBam » Mon Oct 27, 2008 6:28 pm

Yes I do. It's hard not to when you work in a night club.
I am responsible until the last hour of my shift then I practically swim in Manhattan's.
I love my job.
I don't drink to forget the bad times. I drink to make good times.

That may be so, but try to pull it off in an office job. Your current environment makes it a cake walk. I tried and apparently failed miserably, but my boss was a good sport about it.

I'm jealous. Sadly, I work in a occupation where boozing is completely out of the question....luckily, I work with sensible folks and after-work boozing is damn near mandatory.

I'm not supposed to drink at work

however the level of cheeriness we are supposed to have makes us seem drunk anyway so as long as I'm careful its all good.
Drunk? I'm not drunk! You wouldn't dare accuse me of that if I was s0ber!

There's a difference between "drunk at work" and "good buzz on at work so I can deal with insane people." I've done both honestly. Never been busted, fortunately. Years ago I got wasted at a restaurant job after I'd been there a few weeks, and one of the senior kitchen staff said, "He won't last," and then I worked there for five years and ended up managing the joint. I don't know whether that's good or bad, but I proved him wrong at least.

Proving people wrong is ALWAYS good.

A couple months ago I had a real meatgrinder of a morning, shit was coming at me from all sides, but I was able to sneak out for lunch. I live nearby my office, so at home after lunch I made myself a nice strong martini, sat down calmly for about 10 minutes, and drank it. I went back to work on top of the world. I couldn't believe how much it helped. I haven't done it since because I can see how it *could* become a bad habit, but every once in awhile, I say we all need to let our our inner MAD MEN and drink during work hours.

If everybody else would drink at work, that would help for sure. I would embrace it in a minute, because I'm a lush to begin with. But sadly, some office environments make it impossible. I attribute this sharp decline in our economic world standing to this fanatical demand for undrunkenness at any function... 1960s, top of the world, put man on the moon, everyone is shitty at work.... 2010s, everyone is undrunk, economy sucks, mexican gulf is destroyed by undrunk corporate a-holes, and undrunk regulators and elected officials are completely lame in facing it... FDR drank 3 martini lunches and he powered through a great depression and won a world war... just sayin

Makes me wonder what a weak martini would be/ Too much vermouth?
