And which hostelry were you frequenting this lunchtime?Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.Comment

These days if I had six pints in a session, it would be potentially fatal for me. Three is about my limit these days. If I try four I regret it.
I was never one for lunchtime drinking when in a contract. Just not worth the grief. Even if things are OK, there is always the anti-contractor permies that complain about paying loads of money for someone who has been drinking, etc.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

I never regret the beer. I often regret going back to the office though.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment
