My wife came home very upset last night as they've got no option but to fire one of her team. This woman had gone to do a home visit at 2pm on a child and the child's brother had crashed into her car on his bike. Kid and bike are fine but a neighbour called the police. The police breath-ed her and discovered she was at 60 (legal limit 35) and were shocked as they couldn't smell alcohol and she was coherent and unconcerned about being bagged. As she was a nurse, the police bent over backwards to help her and assumed their machine may have been faulty so they went to the trouble of bringing in another machine from another patrol car but this gave the same reading and naturally their attitude changed. Now my wife was in the same office as this woman all morning and can vouch for the fact she hadn't had a drink and isn't known to drink more than socially anyway. The woman swears blind, and everyone who knows her believes her, that she had two normal sized glasses of wine the previous evening and yet she shows up at almost twice the drink-drive limit at 2pm the following afternoon!
So as her job depends on her ability to drive, she'll be fired as there's a mandatory ban and she'll be lucky if it's only a year. Just shows how alcohol affects different people in different ways, doesn't it?
