"At risk" occupations

According to WorkSafe Victoria, the highest rate of drinking is among administrative and executive staff. Other heavy drinking occupations include mine workers, salespersons, clerical staff, professionals, transport workers, trades people and labourers. [v]

Contrary to what many people think, it is not only the "problem drinker" who may cause alcohol-related problems at work. Impacts on work performance and relationships can arise from:

* the consumption of alcohol by anyone at work, during meal breaks or at work-sponsored events
* one-off or occasional bouts of heavy, or "binge", drinking outside work
* long-term moderate to heavy drinking by people outside work.

This means that when we talk about alcohol and work, we include the whole working population.

Read the Report: Alcohol and Work: Patterns of use, workplace culture and safety.

The number of alcoholics that don't think there alcoholics in Australia, is around 5 million and that includes binge drinkers, so don't come off to me as your all in control........lol....The one that say they don't are the one's that do the most. Paint me what ever colour you want, but I know human-nature, so lick that dan and not OUG's butt:)

Hypocritical delusional bulling as you would expect from Australians that thinks the sun shines from there arses....LOL....you may want to judge yourselves before you judge others.

You're dead right, Blue.
It's actually been disgusting the way so-called teenage binge-drinkers have been taking the wrap for the real boozers in recent years.
But then, this great nation is built on over-consumption of every kind. Why should piss be any different?

Alcohol may be man's worst enemy but the Bible says love your enemy.

You are clever, Lexi.
I appoint you editor of the Post-Punch Magazine.

OUG,
I'm sorry, but if they don't serve wine down there in those lower regions, I flatly refuse to go!

But then, this great nation is built on over-consumption of every kind. Why should piss be any different? Now that you've put it like that, I have seemed to have lost all motivation to care about anything. One trys to clear the way with the best intentions, and no-one wants to hear it.

All I'll do from now on, is to tell people want they want to hear, that way, the three wise monkeys that sits on my window ledge, they can do it just the way it sounds.

Lexi...I read you loud and clear.......No change, nothing new and humdrum all the way....got it! All new idea's are to be silenced, no going against the grain, No humor or satire, God is real and all that's me is to be declared as false and crime to the majority, and no opinions that other people don't find favorable.

Got it.

Dear Blue, I pride myself on being OLO's foremost critic of the staus quo. I assure you my cynicarcasm is sincere.

And I have to say, Lexi... that was a shrewd comment Blue sent your way..
