The below are valid reasons as to why drinking should be allowed at work. If
you use them wisely, you may even be able to convince your boss into
allowing alcohol...righttt

1. It's an incentive to show up.

2. It reduces stress.

3. It leads to more honest communications.

4. It reduces complaints about low pay.

5. It cuts down on time off because you can work with a hangover.

6. Employees tell management what they think, not what management wants to
hear.

7. It helps save on heating costs in the winter.

8. It encourages carpooling.

9. Increases job satisfaction because if you have a bad job you don't care.

10. It eliminates vacations because people would rather come to work.

11. It makes fellow employees look better.

12. It makes the cafeteria food taste better.

13. Bosses are more likely to hand out raises when they are wasted.

14. Salary negotiations are a lot more profitable.

15. If something does something stupid on the job, it will be quickly
forgotten.

my boss keeps at least a 12-pack of budweiser in the fridge & usually some wine & crown on the counter...i can't even count how many times he's offered me a drink because he knows i'm having a bad day. but i can't exactly pull up to the daycare to pick up my daughter drunk!

alot of those sound more like consumption of something else rather than alcohol. or is that just me?
