Alcoholism

I got sent home today for the 2nd time because I wreaked of booze. My boss shook my hand and I was like fuck does that mean I have to go home. Ya dude I'm sorry. I don't drink before nor during work. Plus I had to wait 2 hours for the bus to run back through as I work 20 miles out of where I live.
Ran into my good friend I generally stand next to him. He drinks at work all fucking day and we all know it. What the fuck am I doing wrong? First of all your drinking steel reserves you gotta move to hard alcohol. I don't like hard alcohol atleast this way i'm never really drunk but ya know. Smoke a cigarette. Take a drink. Hard alcohol I drink like that and I get twisted way too fast.
He basically said you have to learn to control it. I'm an alcoholic too i'm going to a job interview right now. As he's letting me take a sip off his pint. Your making the wrong choices to get caught. But I know I can't trust myself with hard alcohol. I'll end up drinking it like beer and than i'm fucked up.

But my boss knows I work hard. So I know my job isn't in jeopardy. But I literally yelled fuck in front of him. Hopefully I can get home soon. Wash my clothes as I know I did spill beer on my clothing last night. But he won't fire me I make too much money for the company.
The hire ups were in the building. So I see where he's coming from. But fuck man I've been up since 430 am. Tired. Actually I was in a great mood today. Bummer. I was gonna bust out 7 boxes of 30 lbs today. I was killing it even clocked in 45 minutes early. Bummer.
I'm a crab shaker. I really enjoy my job.

He shook my hand. Come back tomorrow I just can't have this with my bosses here. I understand I'm getting my laundry together now. Plus I forgot to brush my teeth fuck man 430 am is really early to wake up especially when your an insomniac. I maybe get 5 hours of sleep if i'm lucky. Usually around 2-3.
Nah I don't shower at all. On weekends I do but not before work. I just come out of there reaking like crab.

Cut back on the drink8ng, drugs are fun until they start effecting you negatively...you got sent home, you probably won't be paid for that.
You might think you won't get fired for it, especially if you're making them money, but as an employer myself, I can say they'll only put up with it for so long. You can't make them money if you're being sent home. And your boss might not care, but his bosses might, and it only takes one person to spread shit around.
Alcoholics usually don't drink less when they keep drinking, your problem will most likely get worse, and then it'll draw attention.

I thought you were trying to taper off and eventually quit.
Is that still a viable option for you, or are you set on keepin on drinking?

Who the fuck cares if you drank the night before and smelled of booze in the morning? If that was the case 10% of the workforce would be sent home every morning.

I don't think there's anything wrong with drinking the night before working.
As long as you can get your shit straight by morning and not come in smelling like alcohol.

Chew gum or have a breath mint, as long as he's sober and can do the job he shouldn't be discriminated against for drinking on his off hours.

Fuck man I dunno. I just don't. I've tapered down so many times to the point I'm shaking laying in bed wishing I were dead. Then after the purge as I call it when you just curl into bed and sweat while sleeping. I dream a lot during it some of the best dreams i've ever had. But keep the sweat going. The purge.
I'm so bored and tired with life. I crave interaction with other people. I crave a lot of things drinkings something I do as I left my home 2 years ago. I'm 2 years clean of heroin but on the other hand I became an alcoholic. I just don't know. I've tried over and over when I get real shaky. But I dunno I always just figure oh well I'm good again and then restart the process.

I shower the morning after drinking, and change into new clothes. Ull never get away with it even if you think u smell ok the alcohol is evaporating off ur skin and into ur stank garments, and everyone can smell that shit twice as well as ur hung over ass.
Just make it a point to shower before work if ure drinking like that. Have ur clean clothes easy to go. It will show respect to ur boss that u are listening to his requests, he sounds pretty cool so it's nice to show a little respect in return

Go to a meeting dude. If you have a desire to quit you could at least have a healthier place to unload than a bar. I think just admitting to yourself that your problem is bigger than you can handle seems to be the hardest part about being an alcoholic for me personally. Granted I've never gotten the shakes, I've never been sent home from a job, and I for the most part held my shit together and never got into a tussle with tolerance. None of that changes the fact that I have next to NO self control once I started drinking. Furthermore I fucking love the taste of a nice Gin highball, and there's probably not a day that wanders by that it doesn't cross my minds eye. At the same time I know the repercussions of such an act now and I'm too old to keep making the same mistakes over and over.

Usually I'd agree with you on that, but if you smell like booze, especially if you work in something like a restaurant, you can be a potential risk.
If you even slightly have alcohol in your system and end up hurting a customer or another emplyee, they can turn around and sue the company for a number of things.
The company is liable for their employees, if he is drunk/potentially drunk and stinks like booze, he's a liability and they have eve ry right to tell him to leave or fire him.
Otherwise it's none of their business what he does in his spare time, but if his spare time is somehow effecting the time they're paying him for, they should do something about it and should have the right to.
If he walks by a table with kids and wreaks like booze, parents probably won't be to happy. There's just so many reasons how it effects his workplace too. Especially if you're representing their company.

that's the whole thing I'm stone cold sober. I don't drink at work or before. I would never do that the company pays my rent and is letting me live a better life from what I had. But I probably do have it soaking out of my pours I am an alcoholic. I know this i've dealt with addiction for a long time and beat one of them. But ya know. Not very hard to walk a quarter mile to buy a beer. I think i'll take home boys advice. Just drink hard alcohol I guess.

How the hell does your boss know you're a drinker if you don't drink before or during work?
Are your shirts so damm dirty that they smell like booze 24/7? It's called Tide and Bounce.
Brush your teeth too. It also helps.
I've been drinking for years and nobody knows. I don't give out obvious clues to my drinking.
