Beer on your lunch break

Im not talking about getting shitfaced, or doing it all of the time, but having a tall beer or two on a friday before you head back to the office. The rest of the day just sails by.....

Am I alone?

Edit: And im talking about at a restaraunt, not pounding a 40 in your minivan in the parking lot.
 
i hate doing it because my productivity will drop. but my company has beer parties at 4pm every other week.

What if it's done with some class - like a 40oz of Busch light instead of OE in your late-model sedan?

And no, the topic came up in a team meeting. Not like you'd narc anyone out but you'd be shown the door if you were drinking and that includes being oncall.
 
It depends on the job I guess. I wouldn't do it in case some shit went down and I was sitting in front of my boss smelling like beer.
 
Not allowed where I work so no. If I came back to work smelling like alcohol I'd soon be standing in the unemployment line.
 
Once in a blue moon I'll slam one before eating. I wouldn't even feel it if I had it with or after eating. A single beer is a tease. But the biggest reason I would avoid it is if somebody would happen to catch a whiff of a subsequent belch, they would have no way of knowing whether I had 1 or 10. There's plenty of time to drink after work.
 
I use to work for a software company that was very liberal. It wasn't looked down upon if you decided to get a beer with your lunch. Heck, there was a guy there that had 6 packs in the crisper of the company fridge. I got to wear jeans and a t-shirt every day. The people there were also very liberal and I can't imagine some of them ever surviving in a conservative corperate culture. There were many freedoms. I miss that place.

Yea I guess I could say this company doesnt really care. The accountant has a fridge in her office that has beer in it, and there is a bottle of Skyy vodka in the freezer in the breakroom. It gets pretty loud in here on fridays.
