I keep alcohol in my office. I usually wait until brunch to start drinking, cause I'm still drunk from the night before. It's not like I'm going to fire myself, so it's all good.

You mean when men were functional alcoholics and it was easier to get away with.
Who are you calling functional?

I would get fired if someone smelled alcohol on my breath at work. It would also show up on random drug tests that all our employees are subject too.
What if you drank a lot the night before?

Man, your job sucks. Tell your bosses to lighten up.

I used to see residents stop in to Ms Maes for a shot of vodka or whiskey before heading into work at University Hospital at like 5am

I do need a drink now. That's for sure.

For piss tests? Breathalyzer, sure, but I've never really called one of those drug tests even if they are technically one.

Here's an article that talks about the tradition of drinking at work...
How to Drink At Work (If You’re So Inclined)
How to Drink At Work (If You’re So Inclined)

Does anyone remember the days when cocktails were routine office supplies? When lunch consisted of two and a half hours and three martinis?
Drinking in the office is a proud American tradition.
quote:
For many companies—often startups and agency-like firms—drinking on the job is now considered a perk. Bloomberg’s Businessweek reports that Yelp’s headquarters in San Francisco is equipped with “a keg refrigerator” that “supplies its employees with an endless supply of beer.” At the Arnold Worldwide Ad agency in Boston, look no further than the office’s beer vending machine, affectionately called “Arnie.”
Holding happy hour in the office brings after-hours activity into the professional space. It’s both a way to keep employees around longer hours while fostering internal connections. Research has even shown that workers who drink are more productive and can better explore unorthodox solutions.
Of course, encouraging drinking in the workplace can lead to exclusion of those who don’t drink for health or religious purposes. Not to mention the double standards for women who drink on the job.

I restrict my AM drinking to 4 occasions.
1. Prior to any fishing trip.
2. Any Auburn football (or any football) game tailgate
3. Christmas morning. Gotta have a little champagne or mimosa.
4. Vacation. Then any time is fair game.

I prefer three or four. My people need to know I´m unpredictable and taciturn.

One of my commanding officers kept a fifth on his shelf that would be replaced every couple weeks.

I like to take a nice bong rip before heading into the office

Maybe if you're a server who works at night or something. Although some days a screwdriver would be nice to start my day.
