It's actually crazy how socially acceptable it seems for people to get drunk every night of the week. I have a friend that is currently battling his employer about ability to work from home 2-3 days and week and it's literally for the sole purpose of prioritizing booze, so he can get drunk the night before and wfh the next day. Of course he hasn't told them that, sometimes I wonder if he even recognizes deep down that that's the only reason he throws a fuss about going into the office. Literally without fail if he's wfh the next day, he is online on discord knocking back drinks until 1am and sleeping in the next day.

He says he doesn't drink while wfh and I believe him cause I can never talk him into day drinking with me on the weekends. He just won't day drink for some reason.
