Drinking with work people has never worked out for me and only served to make work more annoying. The closer to blue coller work and "unskilled" work you get the more enjoyable that was. The closer to white coller office work, the less enjoyable.

That's just my experience though. Regardless, I don't drink anymore anyway.

I think this is totally right. If you're in a "white collar job" then the dynamic has the potential for backbiting and power games (so the drinking becomes networking, work, etc) versus being fully clocked out
