It's been said that drinkers earn more on average than those who say no [1] and if that's true, the characters on AMC's Mad Men [2] must be making a fortune. The show captures the wild business of advertising in the 1960s and is filled with martini lunches, post meeting whiskeys and brainstorming with a bottle. Clearly the amount of drinking in the show is greatly exaggerated (I'm not sure anyone would perform in a meeting after downing five cocktails), but it got me thinking about guzzling on work time. Have you ever busted out a bottle during office hours?
