some real life, ish for the kids. 

My closest friend is a high functioning alcoholic. He's very good at his job. Worked his way up one of the largest banks in the world, managing a large wealth management district that spanned from NY to Chicago. Was making $800K a year in salary and then showed up to a Zoom meeting drunk. And then another one. And then a night at the bar with coworkers were he disparaged the company. Today after a 6 month investigation he was let go. Alcoholism is a hell of disease and catches up with most people eventually.

The danger with alcohol is that many people don’t see it as a drug until it’s too late. That’s what makes it so harmful.
