Survey to understand what percent of people here Drink or Smoke?

Hi GVners! Not a random question but something that intrigues me every time I see people networking over Drink or Smoke in offices. What I have realised is that people who are into Drinking/Smoking tend to bond quickly with people who do the same. So just wanted to know how many of you actually drink/smoke?

No, this is just stupid generalization. Your networking or bonding ability totally depends on your people skills.

I have seen even non teetotallers struggling to communicate or interact. These are the people who lack interpersonal skills and are solely reliant on alcohol or tobacco to give them the "high" that they think would enable them to gel with others and help them "fit in" 🤦🏻‍♀️.

And not to forget the numerous health issues that come along with these stupid habits (even if you are not regular). They don't realize now but sooner or later, they face the consequences. And God forbid, if something unfortunate happens, their near and dear ones have to bear the brunt of it 🤦🏻‍♀️.

Do you feel the urge to join folks during smoking break?

I have observed many freshers joining seniors during smoking break for “networking”. is this a common thing and does it help in getting promos?

I don’t smoke but will consider it if there’s a benefit for my career.

Hey everyone,

I want to share a little story with you all. Every weekend, my teammates go out to drink and smoke. While they seem to enjoy it, it’s not really my thing. I often find myself looking for other ways to spend my weekends.
