Dude, have you never talked to an alcoholic? Many of them really truly cannot even step foot in a bar, it really is that bad for them.
- shaklee3 9y agoI would guess that most people he's referring to are not alcoholics. That's my experience, at least.
- Balgair 9y agoYou'd be surprised. ~10% of the US population has "drinking problems" in any given 12 month long period. Finding stats for alcoholism is surprisingly tough, I think because defining it is so difficult, but about 30 million Americans seem to have 'issues' with the booze. Meaning that you can expect to discover ~1/10 of your team members has an 'issue' with using the bar as a meeting place, whether they admit it or not. https://www.livescience.com/51066-alcohol-use-disorders-prevalence-us.html https://www.livescience.com/51066-alcohol-use-disorders-prev...
