Today, after being a resident DJ at a local club for over 4 years, I got fired. Not because I'm bad at what I do, but because my boss thinks I'm not 'having fun like the other DJs'. And by 'having fun' he means that I don't drink enough. I got fired for not being an alcoholic. FML

I don't drink much either and a lot of times people don't think Im having fun at parties because of it. I can sympathize with you here, you don't have to get wasted to have some fun.

the dj's that play when i go clubbing, mostly drink energydrinks or water :s like normal people, i wouldent drink while working :)

Probably better that u not work there then lol

That sucks, OP. But you have a lot of experience, it won't be long until you find a new job!

If you can only "have fun" with excessive drinking, there's a problem. Consider yourself lucky that you can have fun all on your own.

one more shot and you would've been fine.

you got fired....for not drinking on th3 job? do you live in bizarro world?

Learn to nurse a drink or put iced tea over ice and act like you're "having fun."

...I'll be that guy. you deserve it. live it up! what? you wanna go to Valhalla? you're on the wrong path already! or, take a word from seether, "FAKE IT, if you don't belong here."

Take an empty bottle of beer and put water (or, you know whatever you like) in it and every once in a while take a sip.
