Drinking alcohol in public?

actually the legal drinking age is 21 in the U.S. so it depends on where you live. I would not advise drinking on the job however even if it's just one drink. If you get caught one day or if the boss smells alcohol on your breath you could get fired do you want to take this risk? If you want to drink wait till you get home but stop drinking during work hours that isn't the best idea.
