What would be the acceptability of this in your workplace? For context, which country and industry are you in?

I guess I’m mainly thinking about professional jobs, but interested to hear from. I think in France it would be quite common to have a glass of wine, even at a work canteen or so. But in the UK it seems like people would think that was a problem, and in a lot of cases you’d be in violation of something at work.

    In the UK people will definitely have a pint on a Friday lunchtime. Sometimes two in my experience. I haven’t seen it as much in Oz but it’s definitely a thing here.

      Interesting, what kind of jobs did you see that at in the uk? In my experience manual/ trades would try to finish up early on a Friday to go to the pub, but not have a beer at lunch then go back to work. And in offices it would be frowned on.
