Alcohol and E-Business Don't Mix!

====================
In the offline world, a cocktail party is never a "really"
a party. They are business gatherings. Few understand the
actual difference.
Companies are now starting to ban alcohol at company
functions, for very good reasons. In e-sales, we must
understand the "party" mentality, even though we work at
home. It's convenient to just grab a beer while sitting at
home but we're working, aren't we?
In Business settings with clients or at in-company functions,
we are working real meetings. We are expected to be on the
ball, functioning properly and in control. If you're smart,
you'll always BE, at the top of your game.
Since loose lips can and do sink ships. "Never" email or
call business contacts, if you have been in a celebration
mood, with alcohol. You're really on call, around the clock.
Keep in mind that a skill deficiency can have consequences
in your business affairs. People do notice business
professionalism and mistakes. Manners and protocol always
count. It's far better that you fall short on the side of
being invisible, than to be the life of the e-party. Being
the latter could result in the former becoming a permanent
and invisible condition.
Skip the alcohol when conducting online business. What we do
here is real work, just like every J-O-B that you have ever
had in your life. Since we do not meet face-to-face, it's
imperative that you never place your contacts in a position
of thinking, that you work under the influence of alcohol.
Celebrate when you're not working.
