I suck at not being fired from jobs. Saying sober and having a schedule isn't my thing. Luckily I found a part time job as a waitress in a casino in Las Vagas. It is one of those kinda classy places where we all have to dress in black/red leotards similar to playboy bunnies. The reason I like the job is also my biggest weakness. The hours are loose and I can drink for free on the job but I become insane when I drink.
This one time I slapped a coworkers butt. She leaned over the bar to put something down and I just slapped it. In my defence it was a pretty nice butt. In all seriousness I don't even know why I did it. I'm not even attracted to women. I was tipsy at the time but still.
A few days later my boss called me into his office and told me I had a sexual harassment complaint put out against me. I remember how embarrassing and awkward it was. I've experienced similar things in the past so I understand. I ended up having to watch a few anti-sexual herassment videos and that was it. By the grace of god I didn't get fired.

You will need medicine for this.
I have obesity issues and I recognize that like alcoholism,
you're unlikely to win a 24/7 battle of will power,
when the stuff is around at the place you will need to make a living.
Have you tried the Sinclair method?
Is that a brand of whisky?
