I hung out with Catholics in college, and they had a Kegerator in the basement of the parish hall. It boggled me.

Booze is a requirement at most Catholic events, at least in my experience.

My college had Friday night wine and cheese parties with the Jesuits.
I was raised by old school Methodists. This has been a hindrance in fully engaging in drinking culture
Being half-French with Polish grandparents on the other side, it's surprising I'm not a bigger drinker than I already am.

Even though Methodists are now allowed to drink at home, I can't imagine them having booze at church events. When I was at a sanctuary dedication for a Unitarian Universalist congregation I was shocked when they hauled out the champagne to celebrate. Booze in the sanctuary! They also had Goddess stuff, Buddhist stuff, and discussions of the value of atheism in the same sanctuary, but that didn't shock me. Ah, early childhood conditioning.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
My main experience with drinking on the job is from when I was a carpenter. In my first job, if the lead carpenter was having a bad day, we'd go get barbecue and he'd down a couple of Crown and Cokes. He was also a pathological liar and we all ended up getting laid off b/c he had a heart attack at 27 (small crew).
My second job, one of the carpenters hot boxed at lunch every day. Didn't seem to affect him, except that he giggled just slightly more.

But once in '95 I had a boss from Australia, who told us it was very common for folks down there to drink on their lunch break
yeah, I remember being in the pub one day to get a pizza (a short lived fad - Pizza Hut in the Pub) and seeing one of my bosses having a beer while he waited for his pizza. It freaked me out.

I am mostly French or Irish, drinking every day is the norm. But I don't.
