    It’s kind of an interesting phenomenon here. There was the news of the flight attendant this week who want allowed on the flight she was planned on because she was too drunk, so much in fact that she crashed her car on the way to the airport, and quite some people were basically “I think being drunk at work is fine”

    It’s very much engrained in society still, I mean go out, drink, IDGAF, but don’t hit me with that “it’s actually good for you / this is culture / this world can’t be enjoyed sober” stuff. Quit lying and take some responsibility

      Fun fact, it’s outright against the FARs to allow an obviously inebriated person to board an airplane except in an emergency. The pilot can get in trouble for letting a passenger board while shitfaced, let alone a member of the crew.

      I had to have a pre employment drug test once, and one part was literally just a breathalyzer. It was vaguely confusing because why wouldn’t you just not drink before a test, but it’s actually for people that are alcoholics and their BAC never goes to 0 or they just drink all the time.
