I tell a raw story about how drinking derails my first gig with a mobile DJ company and costs me the job before it even starts. 

I break down the excuses, the anxiety, and the shame that show up when alcohol runs the schedule, then I ask you to share your own work fallout. 

• Alcohol and addiction affecting jobs, relationships, and daily life 
• Leaving club DJ to escape the party environment 
• A first mobile DJ gig at a university pub event 
• One drink turning into a night of heavy drinking 
• Waking up hungover and using the flu excuse 
• Boss trying to help by setting up equipment 
• Hair of the dog leading back to drunkenness 
• Ignoring calls and the boss showing up at the door 
• Losing the job and naming it as a consequence of addiction
