Today at community service ..
One guy came to community service today and was sweaty, but quiet. So I asked whats wrong and he says "hungover." I said you sure you're not still drunk ? He replies that he's still kind of buzzed as he hasn't slept. He says he went out drank some hard alcohol, did some cocaine and did not sleep at all. Throughout the day, in the hot sun, he was silent. Every time I looked at him he just looked completely miserable and when I asked if he was alright he could barely talk and would just say "ill be ok." I remember those days of feeling like crap. Today just served to me as a reminder of how overrated drinking is and not worth the suffering we put ourselves through as a result. I guess that's why so many people fail to appear after just a few days and I now have gone for 5 months without missing any of my assigned days.
