This is why you have a few after work

It's always a bad idea to drive while you're drunk, but sometimes the idea is a really bad one. Like when you're driving to your job at a police station:
The Oregon State Police arrest drunken drivers on the road every day. But it's not often when the drivers show up drunk at a state police office.

Troopers charged Ruby Ann Pederson, 42, of Newport with driving under the influence of intoxicants after she came to work to clean the state police office.

A trooper said she showed signs of being intoxicated after driving to the office with her 12-year-old son. A blood-alcohol test showed her level was 0.19 percent — more than twice the legal limit.
Along with the DUI, she was also charged with reckless endangerment. Being a dumbass is not against the law in Oregon, so she wasn't charged with that.

I guess the good part of this is that they didn't have to go too far to lock her up.
