You're right on that one, was about 22 or 23 at the time, we worked a lot of hours at this place, but were all good friends, even with the owner, and although he (owner) could sock em down after work, and this guy (whom I gave the car to) had a kid with his sister, so there was some family connections here, it never appeared to be anything other than an after work thing. No one did (and they'd never know) drink during work hours, but this one fellow sure made a career out of it later. I figured he'd keep making it to work, pay me and do the right thing, til I saw the car being driven, never thought they could come after me, title was not even in my name, bought it from a friends dad and just gave it to him was like a $300 car, a decent one too. Title was still in the first owners name.

I've seen my old boss in the local watering holes on occasion, sometimes tying one on where I don't even think he recognized me, he built a successful business too, still at it, only a few years older than I, but the other guy let alcohol ruin his life, stack of DWI's, jail time, gout and other effects of being pickled all the time is not kind to your health. He lost some good jobs, at some good local heavy and highway construction firms that do a lot of prevailing wage work, was a good dump truck driver and just as good on the equipment, all to shame for excessive drinking.
