[quote=Anonymous]What really killed it at work? Some say Covid? But I say maybe the Financial Crisis in 2008 when budgets cut and tons of the last of the older “three martinis lunch” crowd laid off. And even before that it already took a hit in stock crash of 2000 and 9/11. In the 1980s and 1990s it was not just happy hour, people ate lunch with co-workers, companies had softball teams, you catch a game with a co-worker, always be some co-workers at your baby shower or wedding. We had secret Santa parties, company picnic, maybe Friday bagels. How did this happen? The getting drunk events all the time deserved to be retired. But why everything? https://slate.com/life/2025/05/happy-hour-drinks-office-work-co-worker-colleague.html[/quote]
