[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 606733, member: 14557"] Kathy: Well, I'm known to be rather easy to be persuaded to many different things straight from work. Having a beer or two with co-worker is one of those things. I try to keep an attitude, that I don't say no just because. I'm a control freak by nature and it would be so easy for me to slip to the lifestyle, there I would say no to everything, if I haven't planned them a month before. That is not something I want, so I try to keep myself flexible. I do plan and feel anxious, if I don't have a plan, but I try not to get stuck to my plans and keep myself open to changing plans and working the new plan in the go. So when someone proposes something, I try to never say 'That would be fun, but I can't because x', if it really sounds fun and if 'x' is not important. So just being with car, is not a good enough reason to have a few with a friend if it sounds a good idea otherwise. I will just call the cab home and pick the car up next day. And of course I happen to work upstairs of the bar (and not a trendy or up-scale one) and there is also a school near by so simply leaving my car to the parking lot while at work makes it vulnerable for vandals. And anyway, vandalazing is so very random.
