prime minister fredrik reinfeldt’s battered administration received a fresh blow when a top aide resigned after it was disclosed that she had been out drinking while on duty. the aide, under secretary of state ulrica schenstrom, resigned after the swedish media published pictures of her embracing a journalist in a bar. her resignation was the fifth high-profile departure since mr. reinfeldt took office last year. he said ms. schenstrom had told him that she had not been drunk. but when he saw the bill for the evening, he lost confidence in her, “i now feel that the alcohol consumption, proved by facts, probably passed the limit that i can defend,” he said at a news conference. “this is one of my most difficult moments in politics.” ms. schenstrom issued a statement saying she had acted inappropriately and had lost the support necessary to do her job.

I drink on the company card all the time. Hell, the only redeeming part to the conference I was at last week was the "networking" I did after dinner one night.
