Did you hear how Peru's top court has just ruled that workers cannot be fired for being drunk on the job?
Brilliant.
So a janitor gets himself buffaloed, rocks up work and gets fired because he's drunk in charge of a broom.
Not entirely happy at this outcome the janitor took his case to court and it was ruled that the firing was excessive because even though he was drunk, he did not offend or hurt anybody.
(Naturally I have visions of Schneider off One Day at a Time and immediately feel empathy for the guy).
So if I get it right, it's okay to be drunk at work as long as you don't hurt or offend anyone - I am also loving the fact that it doesn't say you have to be productive while being drunk- you just have to be at work and not piss anyone off.
Outstanding.
I'm moving to Peru.
