Is it illegal to drink alcohol before work, even if you're not tipsy or drunk?

Oh, and on the note of legality - it’s illegal to be intoxicated in a public place…having a drink or two is not considered intoxicated.

No. It isnt illegal to drink before work. When it comes to work place policies, each one has it’s own rules. The place I work at did a drug test before I started working there, and there was a minimum alcohol level to test positive. Basically if you show up to work with over that level, they could fire you (the level is a lot lower than the legal limit, basically anything over one drink could put you over).

Also it depends, if you’re a doctor working in a hospital there maybe legal implications if someone dies on your watch while you’ve been drinking.

Alcoholics Anonymous has a hotline.

LMAO!! Im not an alcoholic, I was just curious because when people work at night on a saturday like me, I thought people might ‘accidently’ drink. lol

In Germany I have seen Germans drink beer on their lunvh breaks. :)

one day I had two during lunch out with a friend, worked a few hours later. My boss commented on that i smelt like beer, and that wasn’t cool with her. as I was front desk ata hotel at the time, but nothing happened.
