There has been a lot of drama at work recently. It seems that everyone working there has suddenly ended their current relationship. Now, normally that wouldnt be a real big deal but Crystal was with her boyfriend for about 5 years and Seth has been with his girl for last 2 years.
Well this is where things became interesting. This group of employees are all young. Crystal is the oldest at 21. All of them are big on whole party thing. I think they drank and went out for an entire week and a half once. They are lucky to go to bed before 4:00 in the morning. Well Seth is one of the bigger drinkers in the bunch and he suddenly stopped. I think he felt that the break up was partly due to his uncontrollable emotions when he would drink. He told me that he finds himself waking up earlier in the morning, he isnt as tired, and he feels overall well except for the fact that his lost the "love of his life." Intersting.... quits drinking for an entire week and now he is sleeping less and feels better with more engery.
Now that brings us to me. Is this perhaps why I dont drink. At first I was thought that it was a finacial issue. That I couldnt justify spending so much money on something like that. I also thought that perhaps I couldnt stand how it made some people act and I didnt want to be a part of that. Or perhaps I just wanted to make a good example. Now I think it is because it would affect how I would act and operate on a daily basis. And that would affect the people around me, my source of income, my employees income, etc.
So I guess I basically do this for everyone in my daily life...
