I constantly struggle with this as I see business people of all races, age, etc etc finish quite a few beers/wine on the lounge, in the plane, at the bar etc.
What are your guys' thoughts on this?
And the problem is exactly what? I also see lots of fat people in business class or in lounges. CUT OFF THE FOOD!!!!

Sorry this is isn't the usual upbeat stuff I like to post, but I have always had a passion to ask this, and since FT is literally my second home, I thought I'd ask those that live the life that I do!

You'll find people who range from tea-totalers to absolute lushes from all walks of life.
Your observations don't really have any meaning or significance to me, sorry to say.
