I rarely drink, and I don't have an issue being around drinkers. Ones that drink heavily can be weird to be around for me, though. It's like they get possessed by a different version of themselves and it's like talking to a stranger. They won't remember the majority of what occurs so it feels pointless in trying to interact with them.
In Rich's case, Mike is not just his friend, but also his boss.

having been on both sides of the coin as a drinker and non drinker, its no big deal. when i say non drinker i mean a few beers in an evening, which is literally nothing. you dont even get a good buzz on. i did the drinker thing in my 20s, friend of mine and i would split a 30 pk suitcase to watch the ball game and we would kill the whole thing. no biggie, the really hardcore drunks get so sloshed you have to carry them around or hear their sob stories or they get all agitated or weepy. then it gets embarrassing, long as that doesnt happen, then its no biggie. a female friend of mine was a complete drunk and one time we are in the Village (NYC) and some bum asks her for some money and she tells him "fuck off N-word", that put me in a hell of a problem if this guy tried to hit her or got buddies or others heard her. luckily he shuffled off and we didnt have to throw down because of this bitch. thats the most extreme example other thn one friend who thought people were talking shit about him and he wanted to fight them. it was up to me to keep his ass out of fights/jail. when i wasnt around thats what happened. Mike looks like a silly/sad drunk so he's harmless. if he was all beer rage then they would ditch his ass quicklike.

hey i'm just keepin it 100. having a beer or 3 with friends in an evening is just what happens in reality. if Rich isnt drinking with the other guys, it might just be he's a former hard drinker himself or he had bad experience with someone who was. its understandable, but there is nothing wrong with nursing a few beers for an evening, its only just a tasty beverage at that point.

Don't drink myself, and while I don't go out with people who are drinking (to the point of actual inebriation) very often, when I do I tend to find it more entertaining than anything. I get to be in a state of mind to enjoy the comedy of the stupid shit people do when they're plastered, and it's always fun being the one guy who remembers exactly what happened that night.

sure i can, i just did!
i would consider a drinker as somebody who drinks several times a week and not just socially. somebody like me who has maybe 6-12 beers in a year, i wouldnt consider a drinker.

I do not know about now, but back when I was college age in the late 80s, the town of Beaver Dam has the highest per capita of alcoholics of any city in the world (the next four on the list were all in USSR). Can confirm that Wisconsinites drink at a level unlike anyone else.
