    Pop the tab on something cold and settle in — it's time for another round of Drinks After Work!

    This time, we're talking all about:
    • Ageism in the workplace — the slipperiest form of discrimination
    • How it hits men and women differently (looks vs. jokes)
    • The myth that older workers aren't tech-savvy (spoiler: they've adapted through every tech revolution)
    • Why your resume might be getting auto-rejected before a human ever sees it
    • The "overqualified equals old, under qualified equals young" trap
    • What to actually do when you experience age discrimination at work

    In this episode, Shannon and Deborah dig into the sneaky reality of ageism at work — the discrimination nobody calls out because it's always disguised as "culture fit" or "overqualified." They break down how it hits women through looks (gray hair, wrinkles = old) and men through jokes ("okay, boomer") that erode credibility. They share the AARP stats on age-related workplace assumptions, bust the myth that older workers can't handle tech (Shannon's been adapting since DOS), and call out the recruiters who demand graduation dates on resumes just to filter people out. Plus, tipsy tips for protecting yourself: don't put graduation dates on your resume, only list the last 12 years, document everything on a personal computer, and know what the EEOC can do for you.

    So sip, swig, or chug — and get ready to:
    • Take graduation dates and old jobs off your resume
    • Document every age-related joke or assumption on a personal device
    • Know the seven protected classes and what qualifies for an EEOC complaint
    • Stop letting people erase your decades of experience and adaptation
    • Push back on the "overqualified" code word for "too old"
    • Take care of yourself — nobody else is going to

    Because it wouldn't be Drinks After Work without the drinks, here are the FAB: Deborah: Sunny D — Jameson Orange, sour mix (or lime juice), simple syrup, orange juice, and club soda (or Sprite if you want it sweeter). Shannon: Lemon on Lemon — Limoncello, lemonade, and vodka. Shake it up icy, top with club soda or 7 Up.

  • Forced Cruises and...Only Four Parachutes!?

    Forced Cruises and...Only Four Parachutes!?
    2026/05/20
    Pop the tab on something cold and settle in — it's time for another round of Drinks After Work!

    This time, we're talking all about:
    • Soft off days — the new way employees are reclaiming their time
    • Why working from home means walking the dog at 2 PM is fair game
    • The corporate hypocrisy of "time theft"
    • How layoffs and exploitation have groomed this kind of employee
    • The trade-off between loyalty, pay equity, and flexibility
    • Tipsy tips for working remotely from places you "shouldn't" be

    In this episode, Shannon and Deborah dig into the Fast Company article about "soft off days" — when remote workers take an hour or two for themselves without telling anyone. Whether it's a yoga class, a load of laundry, or walking the dog, employees are quietly reclaiming time that companies have been quietly stealing for years. Shannon, surprisingly, is fully on board. Deborah plays devil's advocate with the payroll tax and legal implications, but they both land in the same place: companies have groomed this kind of employee by underpaying, overworking, and revoking the flexibility they promised. So if you're gonna work from Paris, just remember — don't change the time on your computer, get a VPN, and schedule your emails to make it look like you're working late.

    So sip, swig, or chug — and get ready to:
    • Take that 2 PM dog walk without the guilt
    • Schedule your Slack messages and emails to look like you're online
    • Remember that "time theft" goes both ways
    • Treat yourself to brunch on a Wednesday — you earned it
    • Set up a VPN if you're working from somewhere you "shouldn't" be
    • Stop apologizing for taking care of your mental health
    Because it wouldn't be Drinks After Work without the drinks, here are the FAB: Deborah: Lavender Mimosa — Lavender syrup, fresh orange juice or lemonade, champagne or prosecco, garnish with something pretty. Shannon: Tropical Martini — Mango puree, pineapple juice, passion fruit juice, and vodka. Shake it up for that Hawaiian punch vibe.

  • Toxic Boxes and Temper Tantrums

    Toxic Boxes and Temper Tantrums
    2026/05/01
    Pop the tab on something cold and settle in — it's time for another round of Drinks After Work!

    This time, we're talking all about:
    • The toxic boss profiles you'll recognize immediately (the temper-tantrum thrower, the spotlight hog, the gaslighter, the rule-maker)
    • Triangulation — when your boss talks about you instead of to you
    • How toxic bosses are literally making employees sick (it's not just stress, it's chronic health damage)
    • Why HR's "engagement surveys" are missing the point entirely
    • The waterfall effect of bad bosses creating more bad bosses
    • How to protect yourself when you're stuck under one

    In this episode, Shannon and Deborah break down the science (and the pettiness) behind toxic bosses. The article they reference says 75% of workers think their boss is the most stressful part of their workday — and that stress doesn't stay at work. It follows you home, wrecks your weekends, and shows up in your body. They share their own war stories with triangulation, gaslighting, write-ups built on twisted conversations, and bosses who demand spotlight while making you do their work. But this isn't just a vent session — they get into how to actually protect yourself: document everything (on a personal device), bring facts over feelings, and don't go in hot unless you've got another gig in the shadows.

    So sip, swig, or chug — and get ready to:
    • Recognize the toxic boss profiles before they wreck your health
    • Document everything on a personal device (not the work computer)
    • Lead with facts over feelings when escalating to HR
    • Throw their own expectations back at them when they don't follow their own rules
    • Take advantage of ethics hotlines and anonymous reporting if you have them
    • Protect your mental and physical health — this is a ripple effect

    Because it wouldn't be Drinks After Work without the drinks, here are the FAB: Deborah: Cooper's Hawk Moscato — Floral, sweet, with hints of peach, melon, and orange blossom. Shannon: Classic Mojito — Rum, lime, mint, sugar, and a few pieces of fresh fruit for spring.
