How can I get away with drinking on the job?

Question

I enjoy drinking and find it bothersome that I can't drink from 9 to 5, any tips or tricks for getting through the day half blitzed?

Answer 1

Anyone who reads this question is going to have two viewpoints :
a) what the heck are you doing to yourself, and those around you?
b) Some tips for disguising the fact that you're bladdered.

You've got the a) person. I'm not judgmental - you can do what you like to destroy yourself, but when you do that, you carry other people with you. There ARE no tips or tricks to disguise even 2 drinks you may have on the job. People can smell it, even if it's vodka. They can see it in the lessening of your reflexes, in the slurring of your words, and one of the bad parts about this game of Russian Roulette you're playing is that though YOU think you seem sober, everyone else around you knows you've been hitting it. I don't know what kind of job you have, but whatever it is, if you're drunk, then you can potentially harm the people around you. At work, yes, if people rely on you, and going home, you can cause an accident, and if you have a family, your drinking impacts on them, too. It doesn't take much drinking to ruin your heart. Not just your liver. I work in a hospital, so I've seen it all. Do you want a heart transplant at age 25? A friend of mine died from alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver when she was 30.
So whichever way you look at it, you're slowly commiting suicide, and -God help you - possible homicide while under the influence.
WHY do you enjoy drinking? To the extent you want to carry it onto the job? Do you hate yourself that much? Do you want to blot life out so much you have to be stupefied to go on? Life is beautiful, but how can you see any of it from the bottom of an empty glass or a full one?
You're addicted to the stuff.
Only people who don't care about what you're doing to others as well as yourself will give you tips and tricks.
Why do you hate yourself so much?
Everyone has decent qualities.
If you hate your job then find another before it's too late.
This is a lose/lose situation.
Somewhere inside, you're hurting badly.
Please, reach out, get sober, or at least drink moderately in the evening - but not if you have a family.
Please don't destroy yourself anymore.

Answer 2

Well yea you cna mix it with coffee in the morning but n ot too much at once in a cup of coffe because the smell will tell on you, ALso drink it in gatorade and sports drink but only some in it not much. AND make sure you don't work if your going to get hurt. ANd never drink around machines that can hurt you and don't drive home neither have someone drive you home.

Answer 3

Try bartending. I bartend and drink at work all the time. If this is not an option, you can mix vodka with almost anything, and it is virtually odorless. Good luck with your drinking. Don't let all these people tell you not to work and drink. All the great ones do it!!!!

Answer 4

Thermal coffee mug. Drink slowly throughout the day. Have lots of bottled water handy and don't over do it...you still need to drive home!

Answer 5

Offer the boss a drink.

Answer 6

Get a job at the brewery or a distillery, that's what I did.
Putting vodka in oranges works also; you get the added beneift of vitamin C.

Answer 7

Irish Coffee.

You can keep the ingredients in a desk drawer. If you don't have a desk, you probably have a job where you shouldn't be drinking while working.

Technically, you probably shouldn't be anyway.

But yeah, Irish Coffee.

Answer 8

You can purchase a fake bladder and keep in it your pants it has a tube that you can run up your shirt to get a drink and it keeps you booze nice and warm! Happy drinking!

Answer 9

I really hope you don't work with machinery or in a field where you could be responsible for someones life.

If you can't go all day without drinking,I think you need help.

sorry if i've offended you.

Answer 10

Recognize that you have a drinking problem, quit, and join a support group.
