Does Drinking Help Your Career?
One thing I am not sure is this assertion in the article...
"Regular drinkers make 10% to 14% more money than those who do not drink, according to the study, conducted by the Journal of Labor Research, published quarterly by the Department of Economics at George Mason University, and the Reason Foundation, a Los Angeles-based think tank."
It could also be that people who earn more money can afford to drink. The question is which one is the cause and which one is the effect...
But I agree with the article's general premise...
"CEOs, particularly those running smaller, fast-growing companies, say that social and professional networking is an essential business tool. And while Johnnie Walker and Grey Goose may not actually be career wonder-tonics, the reality is that a significant amount of this networking takes place at company happy hours and other social events involving alcohol."
