1. It's an incentive to show up.
2. It leads to more honest communications.
3. It reduces complaints about low pay.
4. Employees tell management what they think, not what they want to hear.
5. It encourages car pooling.
6. Increase job satisfaction because if you have a bad job, you don't care.
7. It eliminates vacations because people would rather come to work.
8. It makes fellow employees look better.
9. It makes the cafeteria food taste better.
10. Bosses are more likely to hand out raises when they are wasted.
11. Salary negotiations are a lot more profitable.
12. Employees work later since there's no longer a need to relax at the bar.
13. It makes everyone more open with their ideas.
14. Eliminates the need for employees to get drunk on their lunch break.
15. Employees no longer need coffee to sober up.
16. Sitting "bare ***" on the copy machine will no longer be seen as gross.

Just a lil fact, Before alcohol proibition ( I think) breaks at work (like lunch or smoke) you were able to sit down and have a beer. I saw it on the history channel or something like that. I think they were limited to 1-2 beers, but hell it would calm you down at a labor intencive job. :tounge:

Man when I was working on Aircraft it was a total no way in hell you could have a beer at lunch. Land your *** in a lot of trouble if something happened, wasn't even a consideration. First day working a non-AC job we hada pitcher at lunch, it was hard habit to break (not drinking at lunch that is). Now I get to get drunk and crash $150,000 computers, well not really cause we are pretty useless when we have that much!

We don't usually drink around here at lunch (once in a blue moon) but it's a good chance that Friday after work we will all sit down and have a beer together. The company is pretty cool that way, the bosses fridge always has beer in it. Heck even a few Guinness for yours truely.
