Dilemma – Alcohol 3

27th January 2020 by PIP editor Leave a Comment

 

The next day she wakes up and has a medium-strength (5.5%) beer at 11.30 am. She feels better and resolves to ride out the rest of her hangover. She goes to the shop and gets a bottle of wine and drinks this throughout the evening.

 

She is working the next morning. She drives the 10 miles to work.

 

Do you think she should have driven to work?

On arrival at work, she makes a coffee and again begins to focus on shaking off her hangover. You come into the kitchen when you arrive. You immediately smell stale alcohol. She explains that she had a heavy weekend. She does not appear intoxicated this morning.

 

 

 

You get on with the day and begin to talk about the upcoming night out with the team.
