In the places where I work: there ain't a whole lotta guzzlin' of anything going on -- except perhaps coffee (for those who like it) or soft drinks. And the "commercial watching" consists of annoying pop-ups on the web.
Some of my co-workers do regularly go outside in the cold to smoke, though. One of them even has an iPod that he takes out there to smoke with him.
I have to admit that a couple of my co-workers always walk around looking like they are wearing elaborate life-support systems. Mp3 players with headphones and wires hooked up everywhere they go -- one of them walks around with an iTouch strapped to his arm all of the time.. Not too many years ago they would have been laughed at -- but now it's more-or-less become an accepted norm.
Still no Apple computers around, though. Lots of iPods in evidence......but nothing (zero) with an Apple on it sitting on the desktop.
