I always travel on my 2 wheeler. That way no body forces me to drink and sometimes i get to drop off my female colleagues as well on the way back home 😄

Win win situation

Unfortunately never had that situation, but I do go with my friends to chill and I've got such wonderful buddies who never force to drink.

People putting pressure on others to drink is juvenile. If you could handle it in college, you can handle it in office.
