For many years in my career I didnt drink. Then for a handful of years I did. For the last 3ish I havnt. Career wasnt improved at all by drinking. I don't feel awkward going to a bar with work folks and ordering a diet coke. No one gives a shit.
A lot of people who drink socially only drink one drink over the course of a night. They could happily leave it if they didnt feel the social pressure to do it.

But whether give a shit depends on society. Chinese become either offended or very disappointed if you don't drink with them. They don't see it as individual choice, they see it as a statement that you don't like the host or the group.
- f1refly 4y agoDo you evaluate every activity in your live solely wether it helps your career?
- AlwaysRock 4y agoNope. But people were commenting on how drinking or not drinking impacted their career. If you actually want to know thought, my life overall has gotten much better since I stopped drinking. The only thing I've lost if 3am drunken yelling about music with a few friends on a regular basis. Which I'll still partake in but just leave at 1 instead of 3. No longer being hung over, no shame cycles and depression the day/s after drinking, significant extra cash in my pocket, and no more acting stupid while drinking is all a huge plus. My mood is actually steady for the first time as an adult and that is hugely valuable.
