He is basically auditioning for a seat on the US Supreme Court and he says "I like beer!" Unless someone drinks as sporadically as I do one can usually estimate what the fellow drinks by multiplying by two. (For some reason, doubling the amount that teetotalers drinks also works). This fellow was a problem drinker in youth, and he still you do not discuss your drinkjing habits at a job interview.drinks, which is characteristic of a middle-aged alcoholic

Yes, he told us about his drinking during his high school years. He talked about the heavy drinking that he associated with his teenage years. He talked about a teenage friend who was alcoholic back then, a struggling alcoholic for most of his life who nearly died because of it and who is still struggling today. Did you listen to that or did you just listen enough to hear something bad to use against him now? OK half wit, you're in trouble and placing me on ignore or making the crucial mistake of placing yourself in a defenseless position and opening yourself up to endless attacks and ridicule by a guy who isn't afraid to stoop down and use the liberals playbook.

You do not discuss your drinking habits at a job interview unless your job entails drinking.

You discuss them when asked about them during an interview or during a liberal inquisition like the one that lots of Americans got to see first hand the other day.

I have never heard a potential employer ask me about my drinking habits. I would not bring it up if I were doing the interviewing unless the prospective hire or subordinate brought it up, as by stating that he had a DUI incident. Because people with DUI convictions are usually alcoholics (it can of course reflect that someone made a one-time mistake of driving after having had more drinks than he thought he did) I would ask about the applicant's drinking, It would be a positive if the applicant admitted that it was a one-time mistake and would not do it again (he is 40 and the incident was at age 22) or said that he has gone through rehab and recognizes that he cannot drink safely. Being a former drinker but still an alcoholic is a positive in that it shows that one can learn from one's mistakes.

Doing a sexual assault while intoxicated? Alcohol excuses nothing of the sort. The 'inquisition' began about allegations of sexual assault and drifted into problem drinking. I prefer that judges be  sober, whatever their ideology and legal philosophy. Am I harshly judgmental about problem drinking on the job Yes! I would fire someone for operating dangerous equipment, including a car on company business while intoxicated, if a superior did not insist on getting him into rehab and giving him a second chance. Sexual assault while plastered? That's good for prison. If I had a daughter who was so assaulted (and that includes 'grabbing her by the crotch), I would encourage her to prosecute if there is no consent on her part to the assault.
