When I worked at Chrysler Canada in Windsor Ontario a lot of the workers streamed into the bars near the gates on their lunch breaks. Ditto at Ford.
The waiters would wait with trays of beer loaded for when the guys rolled in and swilled back as many as possible during the lunch break? I also had friends at Carling Brewery who were permitted to drink beer on breaks as well and there was nothing much wrong with the beer although I must admit the cars of the period left much to be desired for quality.
I owned several Geman cars during the 70s and all were high quality and reliable so maybe a few beers isn't a bad thing. My favourite car of the 70's is still the BMW 2002.
