I think that drinking really gets the bad rap. You can have a cigarette any time of the day but if you want to have a beer with your lunch, you had better wait until 12:00 (at least in the States, I found more freedom traveling amongst the British – includes Australia). Someone stops and has a cigarette and they’re being unhealthy, someone pulls out a drink and suddenly their charged with disorderly conduct.
I don’t think there’s much difference between the vileness. In fact, I would much rather see people hanging outside having a small drink on their break while chatting than having to cough through a bunch of smokers. Alas, I think this is a fight that I will not win and I have more to lose trying to fight than I have to gain – again, I’m supposed to be a positive role model and positive role models don’t drink ever.
