"I do think that the quality which makes a man want to write and be read is essentially a desire for self-exposure and is masochistic. Like one of those guys who has a compulsion to take his thing out and show it on the street." - James Jones Wednesday, Jan 11
Lushes...The Lot Of You
But turning to the bottle? On the job? Tsk, tsk... According to a new study out of the University of Buffalo, those in the media are some of the biggest on-the-job drinkers (of course, we suspect that UB's professors pass the long, cold winters by doing some drinking of their own in between their morning Sociology Class and their afternoon freshman seminar...): Young, single men are tied most often to workplace-related drinking, especially managers, salespeople, restaurant workers and those in the media, according to the findings by the University at Buffalo's Research Institute on Addictions. Of course, some of you may just be following the latest trend and embellishing your drinking stories. Hell, it might even land you on Oprah. So you: Yeah, you, sitting at the bar at Olives, Rumors, Lounge 201, Stetsons, the Palm, the Post Pub, Stoneys (R.I.P.), get back to work. No? Oh fine, we'll toss one more back with you before we hit the road. Deadlines aren't for a few more hours anyway. Email This Post |
