I drank every day for more than 20 years. I could count on one hand the number of days I hadn't drank before stopping and the only time those days ever happened where when I was too sick to even have a hot toddy.
If I was working I'd pour my first drink as soon as the bar was setup in the AM. If I had the day off I'd pour a glass of white wine before noon.
I didn't always drink to oblivion but I did drink all day every day. I've been working in bars my entire adult life.
