    “All the conman did was take his money. You made him feel stupid.”

    Don’t remember who that quote was from, and that’s certainly not the exact quote, but I always liked it. If it rings a bell for anyone, I’d like to know.

    Edit: CW: Reddit. It was David Frum, apparently. In spite of that I still like the quote.

    A valid point, but this study tested forearms. Most of us wash our hands multiple times a day, wiping off natural oils and dehydrating our skin. We don’t do that with forearms. If we agree the benefits of handwashing outweigh the dehydration, it’s probably better to offset the dehydration with moisturizers.

    At my first job, a fairly large firm with a few hundred people, I remember the furtive glances around the table as everyone didn’t want to be the first one to order a beer. Once a single person ordered one, several others would too. The boss was fine with it, but nobody did it in front of the boss’s boss. We never had more than one, though.

    At my second job, a small, new company with 12ish people, it was pretty common. Sometimes someone would bring a six pack to share into the office on a Friday afternoon. Usually, the owners would join in.

    At my current job in the public sector, the culture just isn’t there. Nobody drinks at all during work hours. I don’t drink as much anymore, anyway.
