What would be the acceptability of this in your workplace? For context, which country and industry are you in?

I guess I’m mainly thinking about professional jobs, but interested to hear from. I think in France it would be quite common to have a glass of wine, even at a work canteen or so. But in the UK it seems like people would think that was a problem, and in a lot of cases you’d be in violation of something at work.

    I work in healthcare in the UK. I don’t even drink on week nights let alone over lunch. I agree over here drinking at lunch would probably be seen as a problem.

    I think a big part of that is the UK binge drink culture. Most people over here drink a lot in one go to get drunk as the goal.
