    I work for a corporation and found myself at “drinking parties” 3-4 days a week because there was a need to discuss (inset business related noun).

    I put on almost 10 kilos and found myself even wanting to pound soju when drinking with my beer tippling friends.

    When I answered a question about my age with a question about how old I look to a new employee at 3차 of another huge session the answer which was supposed to be kind to my ego had my “simiilar to the age of Heo 과장님.” A man eleven years my senior.

    These days 1 mid week sesh is sufficient.

    Anyone else notice the odd frequency of spontaneous fistfights (often sucker punches) among co-workers at these things, or is that just the salarymen I know?
