Every time a coworker enthusiastically asks me how am I gonna celebrate "Cinco de mayo" I kindly remind them
1. That's not a real Mexican holiday (unless you are in Puebla)
2. I'm actually Puertorrican, not Mexican.

What about tequila?

@AD1 Alcohol is generally welcome in the office. Hopefully the tequila lines some Mexican/Mexican American pockets. Just better not see any fake mustaches throwing ‘em back.

You guys...
