And of course, we have yet to begin to touch the Cadbury's chocolate bar and the chocolate hobnobs addiction.......

At our downtown toronto software company, while it's not encouraged we have a trophy for the most drunk person at a work event...it's a toilet seat with a bowl and 2 hammers on it (hammered getit?). We have a tequila party and a deck on the roof where we have events. Ok, so maybe we are encouraged:-)

I once spent the entire go-train trip with the dry heaves in the toilet the day after a party.

Our company foots the taxi bill for anyone who's had too much...no limit for distance.

daft I call it.

A bit like denying a kid candy all year then giving them a huge bar of chocolate ... they pig out on it until they puke up ... I suppose at least you know which day everybody at the company is going to be useless at the same time

That's what I was alluding to. I remember, at age 15, buying a bottle of Merrydown cider every Friday night. (With most of my friends doing the same. £1.35 from our paper round money) Sitting on the local park getting hammered and thinking how 'grown up' we were.
It isn't the underage drinking, (I allow my children, once they got over 14, a glass of watered wine with Sunday lunch) it's the fact that a lot of adults accepted it as some form of 'right of passage' for a young man. (And, nowadays, young woman)

Unfortunately; the cycle continues. Luckily, not where I currently live, but there's a big problem where the outlaws ( )live.

Are you hiring?
