Our jobs and the futures of our careers can depend on how many beers we buy the boss, our after work booze, banter and our drinking stamina.
Ever felt the pressure to drink with colleagues, even when you didn't want to? In this episode of 'Sober Awkward', Vic is joined by her sister Louise, who brings over 23 years of sobriety experience to the table. With Lucy away in England, the sisters dive into the tricky world of alcohol in work environments. They chat about why there's so much pressure to join in on after-work drinks and how those dreaded hangovers can affect your career.
You'll hear some cringe-worthy work-related stories from Vic, Lou, and even some listeners that will make you laugh and wince at the same time. But it's not all embarrassing tales; they also discuss practical ways employers can create more supportive, alcohol-free work functions. Whether you're navigating sobriety or just curious about making your workplace a bit more AF friendly, this episode offers both laughs and valuable insights.
So, polish those shoes, tuck in your shirt, and get ready for a candid conversation about the intersection of work and sobriety.
