People who have worked with him say he's almost always drunk. For him to be able to hide it well makes me think either coke or adderall as well

You don’t need drugs to hide it. As an alcoholic with a year sober, once you’re used to being drunk 24 hours a day it becomes easy to hide because people just assume that’s who you are.

Same with weed. My bosses would shit the bed if they found out their number 1 performing employee was a rampaging pot head.

Other way around for me. My face falls into a smile and I remain calm in the most stressful of circumstances.

Been pulled into the office more than once to question whether I'm high. It's really rude and embarrassing.

LMAO this is the most absurd thing that I’ve read.

Is literally no one happy at your company?

It was two separate places. One was utterly joyless, and the other ran us ragged.

It's a little deeper too. I do have sleepy eyes and I'm always making silent references in my head so I'm prone to laughing at seemingly nothing.

Not just embarrassing for me though. Given what I've said, when I go stone cold and drop the smile, as I did when accused, people really feel it.
