Getting Your Drink On At Lunch

Recommended Posts

There's no option for "I have been known to do it from time to time, but don't make a habit of it" :|

No, I have never been caught :D

edit to add: I don't think I really could get "caught" since the company buys beers and passes them out from time to time on friday afternoons.

Yes, I've done it. Back when I was practicing in Los Angeles it was not uncommon to go across the street to Casey's to get my drink on at lunch. Usually, the drinking came at the behest of and from the wallet of my boss.

Here's a post I made after one such day - 6 straight hours of alcohol. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=443580#443580 As an aside, I actually DID scare the shit out of Shark on that jump we were discussing at the end of that thread.

Could have had an option for "yes I've done it a few times"

During my college summer co-op job, I had the coolest boss. I was underage at the time, but on Fridays, we usually had 2 hour lunches. One week we all went out to a restaurant that had an outdoor buffet and beer. I'm 20 at the time, and boss asks me "wanna beer?" I stare at him for a couple seconds, then say yeah... B|

I'm going to Chili's for lunch with my best friend. I'm so tempted to order a drink.

Who of you have partaken in the consumption of your favorite alcoholic beverage while on lunch break from work?



I know nothing about liquid lunches...if I drink during lunch I would get fired! :|

Well thats true if I didn't invite the boss :D:D:D

Good thing I am good at keeping secrets

Yes I have done drank at lunch, usually with the boss, I don't like to do it regularly though because only a couple of drinks mixed with food makes me sleepy.



Same here. I had beer at lunch once and won't do it again because it made the second half of the day go so slow since I was tired.

Back when I had a good paying job, we used to go to Captain Creams (yes it is a strip club) for lunch on Wed and Fri. every week. Most of the time we would keep it mellow, but there where a few times that we came back and enede up in wrestling matches in the office or shooting so many rubber bands at each other our fingers were sore after.

The boss never seemed to mind as long as we opened enough accoutnts that month. He was all about the money, show him the money and you could get away with anything, and we did.

I sell installations to family companies in Latin America from USD 500'000.-- to about 3'000'000.--
The best deals for both parties are made over a good bottle of wine during lunch break...
So drinking over Lunch "break" is part of my job ;)
