Boozing on the job
Today, I was at work, cleaning up a construction site. I picked up a beer can and accidentally spilled some of it on me. My boss came in to check on me and thought I was drunk. Instead of getting a raise, I was fired. FML

Today, I accidentally fell asleep at work after working a 12-hour shift. Instead of waking me up, my coworkers spiked my coffee mug with whiskey and told my boss I was drunk. My boss wouldn't even listen to my side of the story and fired me. FML
Today, without any warning from my body whatsoever, I had to go to the bathroom at work to puke. I was then fired for being ‘drunk’ at work. I wasn’t drunk, just sick. FML
Today, it's day one of my suspension and probably being fired from my job. Why? I accidentally took a beer out my bag instead of a soda, then got distracted working to make sure everything got done. FML

Today, I was in a rush to get my lunch for work. I quickly opened my fridge to grab it, and accidentally knocked over a beer, spilling a little on my pants. I told myself I'd spray them in the car. I forgot, and when I got into work, someone sat down and commented that they smelled beer. The person was a student. FML
Today, while working at the bar, I accidentally spilled a beer on my chest. Several drunk men whistled and seemed to enjoy what they saw so much that they bought even more drinks and started coming onto me. My boss asked if I could do it again on my next shift. FML

I'd fight that with a Breathalyzer test. You can prove you're sober. Also be careful what you pick up. It can have the wrong connotations.

Seems like your boss was looking for an excuse to fire you :( and a breathalyser wouldn't save you unless you had it right there and then

That only works for 24hrs and even a piss test or a blood test he's passed the point. Piss test if they do it in the 3-5 days blood test 2 days. I'm guessing he's past the point of proving he's past the point because he luckily would've had enough time if he was to pass it out of his system. That's if it is debatable, but a smell that strong you didn't any speed stick in your truck /car or in you bag in case you see your SO right after work?
