>>56150062The opposite actually--I noticed something was wrong when the rum kicked in during work the next day and I was suddenly completing all my tasks waaaayyyyyyyyy faster than normal. My mind was suddenly sharp as a brand new razor blade and I didn't have any aches or stiffness to slow me down. "Oh no, the alcohol's finally kicking in!"
When I was fairly new to the job, I was at one of my hangouts until 11pm doing shots with the bartender (how could I say no, they just kept sliding new drinks my way and I didn't even have to pay for any of them). The next morning, still a walking fire hazard from the night before, I had the head of scheduling track me down because he just had to meet the superhero everyone had been buzzing about. One conversation later, and I was moved to the front of the promotion line.
Plot armor, baby.
