So far there has been no impact on her work life. Her drinking is definitely of the binge variety... The other night was unusual because it was a night before work, typically her binge drinking happens on her nights off. I do believe it was due to the Christmas party that she desperately wanted to go to.

In fact, work life is great for her. Her unit loves her and a number of executives have told her she is management material. She doesn't believe it of course and doesn't even believe she's that good of a nurse, though she is really a very good nurse. Her technical competence is very good and she combines that with a bedside manner that comes from truly caring about her patients.

I do think it will be interesting to see as all this unfolds on how the drama and disruption effects her work life.
