Advice for the new girl. It's your first day. I know you were probably nervous about going to pub with your new colleagues at lunch, but are you sure it was wise to accept every offer of a drink? Are you sure it was wise to drain each one so quickly? Are you sure saying "and make it a large one" each time was a good idea? Are you sure it was politic to tell us why you really left your last job? And that you lied to get this one? And was that braying, snorting belly-laugh really necessary? You have heard the term "probation period", no?
