For a long time our corporate policy has been no alcohol on site. We are allowed to serve it at appropriate off site functions, meals, etc. but I've never seen any openly served in any of our buildings.

Most of my colleagues have tenures measured in decades, but we've been hiring more from the outside to try and rejuvenate things. After a rough year last year, a recent marketing hire made for all of us an otherwise appropriate "stress relief" care package as a thoughtful morale boost gesture. I say "otherwise appropriate" because it contained a single-serve bottle of vodka. When she gave one to our division attorney he gently pointed out the issue. Nothing happened to her, but it was one example of why she didn't see much future with us and just announced she's moving elsewhere.
