That works so excellently for the military. You're technically able to be called back in at any time, but you're also allowed to drink when you could reasonably expect to have that time off.
And the clincher; you're not allowed to be drunk on duty, so they can't even say "no worries, I'll pick you up" without implicating whoever ordered you in
Unless it's an actual emergency and they can't get anyone better. In which case the whole drunk thing will be swept under the rug. Unless that causes an incident.
