I used to work in a metal fab shop years ago. There were a couple of the guys on my shift who would drive to the bar down the road for lunch, drink as much hard liquor as they could in 25 minutes, and then come back to work. The ones who didn't go to the bar instead stepped out back and smoked a joint.

It did leave the break room nice and quiet for me during lunch.

I used to work at a call center with a bar across the street. One day my supervisor invited me to lunch and the second we walked in the bartender started pouring a few shots. Both for him.

Not going to lie after that lunch the second half of the day was a bit easier than the first. Glad I got out when I did.
