old job over a decade ago i started sneaking two (2) natty ices in my lunchbox and would lag late on lunch just up on top of the rotting down mcmansion we had our lunch in place full of feral cats but still had that fake swank and we'd all be polite to the cats and try not to touch them because cats are great but the ones that are way down are all incest babies with gross diseases, you'd shudder to think i used to go up on the roof though and hit golf balls i'd found with the drivers we kept and try to hit bulldozers with them and that is my golf story

also the legend of the lovely cat house was that it was a spec house but some people had been flying in drugs onto a small airfield you could see out there which made it sort of romantic

I used to be in the restaurant industry so yes definitely just drank all the time as a requirement. Now I'm a mechanic and definitely about to let the clown back out of the box.

OMGVBFLOL posted:having been an dyed in the wool, on-the-dark-downhill-highway-to-suicide alcoholic, it's nice to hear the "wild and irresponsible" stories of normal moderate drinkers, because when someone was like "man, this one time, i drank to get through my day it was a seriously dark period of my life and im glad it's over" it really grants perspective on all the times i was home alone watching tv and drank until i poo poo myself even though i didn't want to drink at all Pretty sure this is a parachute for commie Ned Flanders FYI

I was management for a massive government contract like 6-7 years ago, and after a couple of months of 20 hour days 6-7 days a week (salary, no overtime, but occasional "performance" bonuses), I started drinking on the job. It was hell- maybe you get to sleep a few hours at home, maybe the night supervisor calls you at 3am because he can't figure out a solution to a simple problem, maybe you just sleep in the office or your truck for a few hours. I had a very nice silverado 2500, but you cannot sleep in a mid-2000s silverado. It was like one of their design specs was "no one must ever sleep in these vehicles." You couldn't recline more than a few degrees, you couldn't lay down across the bench seat because there were a shitload of seat belt things sticking out of the seats. Yup, this truck had every option except for a loving place to sleep. It started with me taking swigs of the mouthwash I kept in my glove box (didn't get to go home every night, so I had to have a backup for proper hygiene), and escalated to me flat out bringing bottles of whiskey or a flask to work and openly going to town on them. I obviously lost my job over that, but I take solace in the fact that every other member of management for that contract also lost their jobs over the course of the next several months. Also, the guy directly above me got divorced, but that was sad, because he was actually a nice guy trying to do right for his family, but the company treated him like garbage. Garbage who made like 1.5x what I did, but still garbage. Six figures was not worth it, and I'm definitely much happier with my lower middle class life now.

I was wasted throughout most of 11th grade and my parents used to say that school was my job so maybe that counts? I work for myself now and I find that the busier and more behind I get, the more often and earlier I'm drinking on the job. If there's a day where I don't have to drive, I'm grabbing a bottle right after my morning piss. Not the smartest move considering I'm a woodworker. My dad works at a TV/radio station and he always told me that the evening news anchor was completly wasted every show and he had been doing this for over 10 years. I didn't really believe him until the guy killed two people drinking and driving. His replacement on the news did not have as commanding a voice. He also kind of looked like my step-dad so I hated him by proxy.

drinking while working is a very bad idea imo, but in theory i think i "get" it sobriety is always considered best but of course i've known plenty of people who seem to function while using drugs brains are so different, it's hard to judge people for one guy taking amphetamines or barbiturates may make him perform better in society and a doctor may instruct him to do so, for another guy the exact same thing may be dangerous, and of course not everyone gets an ideal doctor and diagnosis and treatment for whatever idiosyncrasies they may have. i'm p sure the majority of people are either medicated or self-medicated one way or another, but then again you have some people who go years or their whole lives without ever having a drink the other day though i witnessed a drunk driving accident, it's not cool, and it's fresh in my brain

I used to think that the whole "gbs posters are alcoholics" thing was just a joke, a poke at other gags and giggles made by posters who were 'yanking our chain' about their drinking habits. But I look at threads like this and I feel sad inside, like maybe it wasn't a joke, maybe you really do need help

But I look at threads like this and I feel sad inside, like maybe it wasn't a joke, maybe you really do need help I don't think it's just the forum, it seems p widespread to me. I've been driving for Uber for some side cash and the experience has been rather illuminating. The job requires me to stay sober (it's one thing if you drink at your office computer job but it's never acceptable when operating vehicles or machines where people can die) and puts me in contact with drunk people on a regular basis. People are drunk at all hours of the day and talk freely about their habits. Basically it seems like substance abuse is a very basic feature of our society which permeates just about every institution

The closest thing I've come to a drunk driving accident was the time a deer charged my car. Oh, and the time a drunk ran through a stop sign and t-boned my truck....I almost forgot about that. I got a new door out of the deal, and the truck actually looks nicer than it did before I got hit. I guess what I'm saying is that death waits for no man, and we're all living on borrowed time, so drink up.

It's one thing to gamble with your own life it's another to gamble with other people's Get drunk or high or whatever you like if that's your bag, but for the love of God don't drive like that. You're much better off calling an uber. You're helping out someone trying to earn some extra cash and you get to get chauffeured around like a VIP and possibly meet a new friend!

No. I use large amounts of coffee to keep me going. Being drunk around kids at school is frowned upon quite severely. We had a noob teacher a few years ago who showed up to school a few times severely hung over. He was warned about this behavior. Then he showed up drunk off his rear end one morning. That was his last day. To add insult to insult to injury, he got pissed and drove off, only to be arrested for DWI.

It wasn't her school, but that's definitely the kind of thing that can cost a teacher her job. It was the best sex we had in the year that we were together, and our entire relationship was characterized by the quality and quantity of sex we were having, and nothing else. It was actually a pretty bad relationship, but she was hot, and now I wish I was 25 again, gently caress
