It doesn’t seem appropriate to drink without antacids and glow red in the workplace. Everyone would think I was wasted. But then again, it doesn’t seem appropriate to withhold from drinking when everyone around me is drinking. They might ask me why I didn’t have a beer. I would have to explain. They might think I was a square and judging them, which I was not. Or perhaps they’d think I was sober, which also seemed to undermine those in the office who struggled with addiction.
