    It used to be more common. Back in the 90s when I was working in an office we’d often head to the pub for Friday lunchtime and roll in later in the afternoon. Going along for a free lunch and a few beers with visiting sales reps was also pretty common.

    I couldn’t do it now - the thought of nursing a proto hangover before I’ve even got home seems insane in retrospect. God knows how much productivity used to be wasted due to work time tipples.
