If you actually think 2 beers over a 12 hour watch impared my judgement in any way - I would have to guess your experirnce with alcohol had been with out of control drunks......
Gotta alcohol problem you need to tell us about bunkie?
Know why I drank on watch?
Just for the fun of getting away with shit...
If one if the girls in the duty section had been willing and available I would have gone the nookie route..... I thinking drinking on guard duty might be the very definition of a drinking problem, and that was before you told me you just did it for the lulz of breaking rules and getting away with it. You'll have to excuse me if I don't believe that a person like that should ever be entrusted with the responsibility of guard, or, honestly, anything else. I guess it's never occurred to you that you might be here, you might have avoided swallowing a big crayon, only because other people were picking up the slack you leave all around you.

Come on man. Having a couple beers isn't dereliction of one's duty.
I remember when I used to work at a liquor store, the manager would (occasionally) crack open a beer. And we'd both have a cold one... even though we weren't supposed to. The store was slow, and there wasn't anything else to do.
I took my job very seriously. If something needed done, I'd do it. But I had zero problem with sitting back and drinking one of the sample beers the vendors left us when there was nothing else to do.

Why not military duty? I bet military duty is just as lame, tedious, and senseless as serving capitalists. At least some of the time.
Would the most responsible person ever drink a beer during their watch? Maybe not. But would a devoted and studious person (who takes their responsibilities seriously) ever have a beer during their watch? I think the answer is: sometimes.

..until it isn't, like when you're on mundane ordinary fire guard duty and there happens to be a barracks fire - or any one of plethora mundane situations where shit can suddenly get very real. Fuck it up because you've got two beers under your belt, you're probably getting charged with a crime.
ETA: at least in the Army, it violates the second general order. I don't know for sure but I think all branches in USA have a similar order.

And if I read his post correctly (I can't quite remember and I'm too lazy to go back to find it), the other servicemen were drinking too.
Got over my laziness and went back to reread it. Nope, it doesn't say that at all. Still, the way he talks of it makes it seem it was a natural occurrence for all the servicemen to be drinking on the job.

I'm sorry but I consider drinking at work to be unprofessional.
