Research Proves Your Slave Driving Boss Is Driving You to Drink
After a long day at work, do you like to unwind with an adult beverage? Let go of the guilt. A new study shows that your slave driving bosses are responsible for your excessive alcohol consumption.
According to a recent article published in the British Medical Journal, people who work more than 40 hours per week drink more and drink more often than those who put in a standard workweek.
What's more, the research indicates that even highly skilled, highly paid employees have a tendency to overindulge after putting in overtime. In other words, the branch manager is just as likely to wrap up their long day with a bottle of red wine as the manual laborer is to crack open a few beers after their shift.
Next time your boss asks if your hungover in the morning, just level with him. Yes, you are hungover and it's all his fault.
