2. Depends where you work, of course! n/t

5. Let me just say, as a former bartender going on 2 years,

it can be an occupational hazard. When I was in my early 20's, we'd drink all night and do shots with the regulars. As I got into my later 20's I didn't start drinking at work until after 11pm.

it's five o'clock somewhere. :)

You could drink to European times.

9. At the first sign of bad news...

General heuristic is about five minutes after opening.

11. Define "work"

Just because one is at the office does not mean he or she is actually working.

12. I've been drinking all morning. Just about emptied the water cooler

I'll have to take a break in a couple of minutes, though. :scared:
