Partying with buddies is relaxed and fun. Partying with your co-workers is dangerous. You just can't trust those people.
Here are some drinking strategies to consider to maximize the fun and minimize the risk …
  • The Front Load – Drink a ton right when you get to the party, so by the end of the night, when you're planning to leave, you'll be sober.
  • The Self-Denial – Drink a drink you don't really like so you drink it slowly. You’ll get the effect, but won’t be able to guzzle mindlessly.
  • The Dinner Drink – Save all your drinking for dinner because drinking on an empty stomach can be brutal.
