Yup, I was talking about extended lunches with many beers. In my opinion, heavy drinking is still bad outside work hours. I've seen supervisors making financial decisions while hangover from their last night party. Was I supposed to believe that their judgment was not biased and faculties ready for any situation? Would you better have an inexperienced sober junior or an experienced senior under effect of alcohol as an employee?

Depends on the person. Some people can do better work hungover than others can sober purely because their base level of skill/output is higher so the -20% or -40% hit (or however you wanna mathematically represent it) doesn’t outpace their increased productivity relative to the next guy

There’s no citation needed, it follows directly from the fact that output varies between individuals. Unless you want to argue that fact...
