# Ive had a fun day
Almost got the sack this morning.
I was only downing a bottle of stella artois at 10:30 in the morning.

Sounds like a bad thing to do in work but it was done as a joke. The type of agency I work in is a relaxed environment type place.Unfortunately someone who I cosidered a friend and had a lot of respect for went balistic at me shouting at me like a little kid.
Tells the boss, boss wants to sack me but I have one more chance. Did I harm anyone or the company by drinking one bottle of stella artois that was in the company fridge because it was at the wrong time of day? Obviously I did. I over estimated the intelligence of certain people in my work. Especially when the boss tells me for a start he's worried as to why i need a drink at 10:30 in the morning.(It was a frigging joke, not a funny one but a light hearted one)

# If they were as cool
an agency as they make themselves out to be they should have made light of the situation. Sadly they aren't
