Okay, I guess I will delve into specifics:

Previous job:
Was at a Wal-Mart stocking meat. Not the most "critical reasoning skill" intensive job ever. Not just that I was drunk, but I was still better at the job than the majority of my peers considering that I no longer cared if I had to completely re-configure the 10 degree F freezer during that time. Not the most healthy thing to do, but it kept me from feeling ridiculous amount of pain to my extremities due to them being in the 10 degree F environment for hours on end.

Prospective job:
Working at a park as a general maintenance person (ie: picking up litter and blowing crap off of the walkways). This is also not a horribly thought provoking job. The worst that happens is I get sent with someone to one of the satellite parks that are patrolled by the employees to make sure that it looks okay, and also do bathroom cleanup/painting. I could probably get away with being drunk the entire time if I didn't have to talk to management. There is the biweekly urinalysis though and pretty damned sure that it doesn't check for alcohol levels.

Point is:
I will not be driving around anywhere, or doing anything that requires driving, while employed at least until I am several years in with extremely good work ethic. Currently all they would require of me is cleaning stuff and that's not all that difficult to do and just gets more enjoyable with wine. Also, around here, wine is not nearly as popular as beer / other liquors so the actual scent of it would most likely not be as prevalent and generally noticeable

WTF of the day: the guy who just drank a full bottle of wine has far better spelling and grammar than half the (sober) posters on this forum.

[Darvi]

Granted, the average person isn't fluent in English, most don't give a shit about proper spelling, and the rest is, ya well, the rest.

@Gatleos: I lol'd out loud for the first time in about a month from reading your post.

I write short stories during a free-writing exercise that I gave myself to do every week. Because of this I have gotten a lot better at writing stream-of-consciousness "assignments" with few or no grammar errors. I look over them every month or so and try to come up with a story between them. I may have to change my assignment from 15 minutes to an hour to get any really good stories though

EDIT!!! (even though I JUST posted this)

Just for those that MIGHT ask, sort of a catchall kind of thing: please do not ask that I release any of my written material as it is not on subjects that would be conducive to publishing at this time. If you are interested in a/any short story(ies) that I have written please address it via a PM to my username box. I promise that I will at least look at the PM but not that I will respond, though that is a very likely thing for me to do.

Penguins.

What's with all the penguins?

[Darvi]

They're tasty.

Not. Silly killer whales.

[GalenEvil]

Ya know what are really tasty? Narwhals... the unicorns of the ocean! I hope one day to capture one and then figure out if that statement is really true

Doc Brown is a real person, and he snorts coke before all of his lectures.

Living Barbie Doll... WTF? (Slightly NSFW, careful around family members and co-workers)

I've seen those pics before. She is less scary without make-up/photoshop.

That has to be a troll. Dear Luna, please let it be a troll.

I'm hoping that OP is a troll.

[Fenrir]

That is most clearly fake. Anyone that stupid would not be able to count six-hundred emails or use decent grammar and polysyllabic words.

e: The more I read, the more I can tell. Words like “displease” and “incidental” are used, and, while he is not stylistically perfect, the OP has yet to type something I find grammatically offensive. Troll.
