I work in a restaurant, and when I first started working the 3rd shift, I dealt with many of what I called the "drunk and disorderly"...I hated it. However, in time I had to realize that I was judging them to be alcoholics, when, in fact most were probably just young people who had gone out drinking for the night and had too much. I did that when I was young and never crossed the line into alcoholism.
I learned to relax and do my job. I got off that shift, but had to work late one night and couldn't stand it again...I'd been away from the "drunk and disorderly" too long...out of practice, I guess.
I agree with KV about setting boundaries. I don't mind being around someone who is "tipsy", but when it comes to being obnoxious, loud and rude, I will remove myself from the situation, no matter who it is. We have an obligation to take care of US.
Hugs and prayers!
