    Really rough weekend on the beer. Friday sat and all day yesterday on a stag.

    I'm tucking into cans of Heineken all morning just to keep the monkeys at bay.

    Anyone else do this? Feel like a right dipso!

    I agree with you that it is the best cure to have one or two beers the next day, but in work is a little borderline.

    Unless of course you work in the public sector.

    Musicians get away with drinking on the job, why not engineers?

    OP you're probably a functioning alcoholic. Just sayin'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,127 ✭✭✭kjl


    This is what's wrong with Ireland, bloke gets so off his trolley all weekend that the only cure is to drink more.

    You sir are a disgrace and I can tell you if you worked for me you would be fired.

    Someone needs a can of beer I think.

    In fairness though OP, drinking cans at work is a disgrace. Go to the pub and think about what you've done.

    Have you a better hangover cure? OP seems more than reasonable to me, I mean, it was a stag after all.

    Of course, because nurses and firemen are well known for starting the working day by drinking a few cans.

    You absolute cabbage.

    No, nobody else does this. Yes, you are a right dipso... and an attention whore. Good luck with that.

    What happened to manning up and dealing with a hangover?

    Puff.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,515 ✭✭✭✭admiralofthefleet


    i remember a few years ago me and the brother and another chap went to the north on a booze cruise at christmas. i ended up bringing 3 boxes of 20 carlsberg export into work and putting them in the fridge.
    me and the other chef were having them for breakfast and were twisted by midday when service began. the bottles only lasted about 3 days


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,923 ✭✭✭cloptrop


    Better off just turning up saying your sick and go pub or home to bed . In my experience this is the best option for when you just cant handle a hangover.
    But jesus man up . Youve got a tiger by the tail let it go and its pure blown no job alcoholism.
