Get Drunk and Earn More Money!
Here is what your next job posting will probably say…
- Must have a MBA
- Must be able to multi-task
- Must have at least 3 years of experience in related field
- Must know how to do a beer bong
- Must like Tequila (Patron)
According to a new study, people who are social drinkers
are earning more money than those who are party poopers!
Makes sense though, if you know how to socialize
effectively, you will probably be able to make more
sales, right? That’s what the researchers are saying.
The study, published by the Department of Labor Research, concluded that drinkers earn 10 to 14 percent more than teetotalers, and that men who drink socially bring home an additional seven percent in pay. So does this mean that we should bring our Johnnie Walker black label to work tomorrow?
Here is a quote from the article published on brietbart.com:
“Social drinking builds social capital,” said Edward Stringham, an economics professor at San Jose State University and co-author of the study with fellow researcher Bethany Peters.
“Social drinkers are out networking, building relationships, and adding contacts to their BlackBerries that result in bigger paychecks.”
So, there you have it! Drink up people!
***And, for those of you that will actually take our advice, get drunk with your colleagues, and get yourself into trouble, here is a link to all of the attorneys listed on SABAsearch.com that can bail you out of jail: Houston Indian Desi Lawyers (Criminal Attorneys)


You just have to remember that there is a fine line between social drinking and getting drunk! Great article…
AreU4Real is absolutely right. The article is in no way actually telling you to get drunk. Tasteful social drinking is the key to success here.
Thanks for the comments AreU4Real!
