Passande en fredag som denna (då vi tänker flexa ut och dricka upp vinet sedan personalfesten och sedan sticka iväg till kompisarna på Matiné för en invigningsdrink):

These days, drinking on the job is anathema in most workplaces. Unless you work at Maloney & Fox, a New York City-based public relations firm, where “Bloody Mary Brainstorming Sessions” are a common occurrence and the bar is always open. Lest this conjure an image of slurry outgoing messages, typo-ridden e-mails and 90 percent absenteeism rates, take note that work gets done. Maloney & Fox’s substantial client roster includes Microsoft, T-Mobile, RCA and Wonderbra. […] Fox says the cost-benefit analysis comes down solidly in favor of the tradition in terms of enhanced creativity and motivation. She notes that the company, which has 19 employees, has never lost a worker to a rival public relations firm, a rarity in that volatile enterprise, though some have gone on to other pursuits.
