When I was younger and worked at a grocery store, I had a coworker confide in me that they stop home on their breaks for a shot of vodka. At the time I saw it as “whatever you have to do to survive!” But now I see it as the massive red flag that it is that she’s a functioning alcoholic.
red flag? nah that’s a bright green flag.
“I love trying to get in the pants of addicts!”
Christ you seem like a slimy dude.
Who said anything about trying to get in their pants? Why is this suddenly about taking sexual advantage of an addict?
They are literally saying that someone getting drunk in the middle of the day is a “bright green flag”
A green flag for what?

School bus driver?
Buddy of mine worked in health care, did urine testing. He’s got stories about people coming in way over the legal limit to drive but come across as sober
Sounds like me with my $20 when I’m on jury duty
Explain to a fellow European why jury duty is so universally hated in the United States of America. I always pictured it as an exciting opportunity with a certain responsibility.
As mentioned by another, a lot of it really is compensation. Most jobs won’t pay your missed days for jury service. They can’t fire you, no, but they also dont have to pay you. If you have kids, live paycheck to paycheck, then get a letter from the government saying you will be needed for an unspecified amount of days, possibly weeks, and won’t get paid for it, it doesn’t seem like much of an opportunity. Better have those sick days saved up, cause if not, you may not make rent.
Luclily they usually pull a large pool of people so that is sometimes not an issue. My last jury summons, I told the judge that I wasn’t paid for being there and the loss of income would cause me financial hardship. “Thank you sir, you’re excused.”
Employers respect jury service only as far as the law requires them to. They do not respect it enough to make service economically viable for their employees.
You have to take time off from work and you are not usually compensated well enough for the inconvenience.
Well, it is never a convenient time. You wind up missing a day of work and they give ( at least in my state) the potential juror $20 for your trouble. I never get picked and have a hard time staying awake throughout the day.
There is definitely a great responsibility involved and I answer the questioning truthfully so I have never get selected by both the prosecution and the defense.
The reasons the others gave are valid, but it’s also a cultural thing. We’re taught via pop culture that getting a jury duty summons, much like having to go to the DMV, is something to be dreaded. Like if it happens in a cartoon or a cheesy sitcom, there might be scary music that plays in the background while the character does a Darth Vader “noooooo.”

This is fairly common in the bar/restaurant industry.
Musicians, comedians. Any job where you have to be socially / performatively “on”.
Watch old Robin Williams stand-up. He actually goes back stage mid-show to do rails of coke.
I think a lot of politicians also do it.
Unrelated video, but thank you for sharing!
I’m not accusing anybody involved at Wacker or the contractors of being drunk, but if turning a bolt wrong kills one and injures four then you can imagine drinking at work is not exactly a great idea.
It’s just as dangerous on foot as it is for drivers, even grocery clerks can get crushed under pallets of boxes weighing hundreds of lbs minimum, there should be no tolerance for it.
That little brunette can grab my yoke any day
What the fuck
Horny lemmy is at it again!
Have you ever fucked an alcoholic up the ass?
That shit kind of burns when they haven’t had a solid shit for a month.
You gotta eat their ass first, that was where you went wrong. Get that tongue in there and clean up before the fucking ensues.

No

Don’t do unprotected anal, kids.
But unprotected anal is just the bee’s knees.
Don’t do bees in their knees either, kids
But unprotected bees in their knees is the cat’s pajamas.
