We drink a lot as part of my job, so technically yes. I guess the more I'm around it, the more in control I've become though. There are at least a hundred open bottles in my office and another 50-100 cases at any given time nearby. If I wanted to drink, I could but I don't.



You work at a brewery, don't you?

Nope, we're a business development firm. I mostly work with alcoholic beverage brand/product development. I work directly with the manufacturers and I get to simultaneously work on my own brands: a whiskey, vodka and tequila.

Only back in the 80s when liquid lunches were kinda normal. We even had one guy get so drunk at lunch that when we got back, he went in his office, closed his door, and slept away the entire afternoon.

That type of thing went out of style probably around '86, though. Haven't seen that kind of behavior since.

yeah i worked at tuff shed in SLC one of there crew would come into work at 6 am with about a 6 pack in him buy lunch he had an other 18 he would drink 1/2 a bottle of jack at lunch and drink another 18 pack between lunch and going home. i had a service manager at a dealership i worked at that would drink a bottle (1/2 gallon) of mouthwash and vodka mixed everyday.



geez... you would think you would get sick from drinking all that mouthwash



Jezus no kidding. Just mix yer vodka with peppermint schnapps or something.



yeah it was kind of funny in the morning the mouth wash was the normal blue color and by the end of the day it was clear but it never got any emptier. his hands would shake so bad you couldnt read what he wrote until after lunch and by that time he was trashed.


good Lord, I'd think his stomach and liver would aim for his mouth and try to make a break for it
