I'm at a startup I can drink beer all day.

Only if you're spending someone else's money.

drinking beer at work is overrated. There's only so much you can drink before you're too drunk to drive. Then you have to stay and do more work. That being said, free beer is free beer. Cheers!

Alcohol affects my work like it affects my success with women: after three or four, I'm in the zone... then it's all downhill from there.

How can you work if you're drunk?

I guess I'll go straight for the old fart corner and ask:

Ok. But why would you want to?"
