I'm sorry that this one isn't about the day trip to Leicester but I know how much SHAers love a chat about alcohol.



How much beer would anyone need to drink at night to go into work smelling of ale the next day? Could it be a sensible amount; say 2-3 cans or would it have to be something a little more session-y like 8 pints. I'm not interested how much you lot drink, just the people you whiff.

Depends if people wash and brush their teeth, typically a prolonged exposure is how you get the booze smell but 3-4 pints without hygiene will do it as well

How do you know they didn’t have some for breakfast?

Lots of factors really. Is the person doing the smelling acutely sensitive to alcohol because they don't drink? could be on their clothes? quite hard to say , but i think a sensitive and discreet conversation with the employee from a manager is the way to go.

Brush your teeth, change your clothes and have a coffee or tea.
Something to eat will help as well.

I would honestly say I've been aware it smells on me the next day when I've had a skinful and other days when I've had more it doesn't.

Wish I knew the science.

Unshaven, wearing the same clothes and reeking of booze is not the best look.
But it depends how often it is and the age of the person.

I don't think the occasional big night out should be seen as a problem. Unless the person is doing a job that actually requires sobriety to be safe.

My science is to not get close enough to a weirdo at work to be able to smell their breath.

Yep, could be out of character and a reason they’ve had a drop.

Blimey ten years ago it was quite normal to go for 3/4 at lunch time on a Friday
