100%. I'm from the UK and the drinking culture here is ridiculous. People don't just drink, they get wasted. My best friend died from alcohol abuse at 34.

There are people at my company who are very obviously alcoholics and spend the workday hungover or still drunk a lot of the time stinking of booze and that's totally fine apparently. But if I smoked weed at the weekend like I used to and came into work totally sober I'd test positive, get fired immediately, completely fuck my career prospects and very likely get a visit from the police trying to bust me. It is bullshit.
