For the crowds that usually work at the office but are now stuck in our houses doing our professional jobs, do you find yourself drinking more and/or earlier?

Wife and I are professionals in the same field and have now declared 4:00 to be wine o'clock. Overall alcohol consumption is about the same but we do start earlier.

Been having a glass or two of wine with dinner pretty much every night since work from home started. Otherwise it's usually a once or twice a week occurance.

Bedtime whiskey pour has not changed, was and is daily. So overall consumption up 4-5 drinks a week I guess.

I drink more iced tea because I can just get up and brew more whenever I want.

I need to make a vodka run this afternoon.

Bloody Mary's are a whole lot better way to start the day than coffee.

I'm never going back to the "real" office!

i've been working from home for 10 years... I hope they don't discontinue it after this is all over because some jackasses couldn't manage being home and working.


and to answer your stupid question...1pm.

Have the old spellcheck changed to jibberish mode?

I would never drink at home by myself. Now I will have a few vodkas at night to get some pretty decent nights sleep.Its funny because I am normally a beer drinker.

Probably the same amount overall, but spread out more.

I try to save boring stuff for the end of the day because it goes down better with a beer. I did that in the office as well though, so no change there.

Around 7 or 8 I take a break and do some yard work. Sometimes I'll have a beer before the shower or a small pour of scotch after.

It's been creeping earlier. I rarely drink during the week, but now more often. Almost poured a White Russian yesterday afternoon.

For now I'm keeping it after dinner, mostly because I work out after "work"

Got creative last night and was very satisfied.

Ice; Gin 1/4 of the glass; mango liquor splash left over from some drinks I made last summer, tossed in slices of a Cutie orange and topped off with Tampico.

I got myself a couple of bottles of Don Julio, and I've raided my local HEB of their entire stash of limes, since there is currently no limit. Daily fresh squeezed margarita in the early afternoon.

My drinking has gone down tremendously, but my masturbating has increased to maintain life's balance.
