We come to find out later that Jay
readily admits to still driving after a few drinks!?!?! What is that all
about? A little but of hypocrisy I think.
Apparently my point was too subtle -- let me spell it out more clearly. I
mentioned that I drive home after drinking fairly regularly -- anyone who
goes to a bar with friends, by definition, must -- for a very specific
reason.
Here it is: If I can spend the last 27 years drinking socially in bars, and
driving home, WITHOUT getting a DUI, does it not seem to highlight a problem
when a guy gets busted TWICE for DUI by age 23? As I've repeatedly stated,
he's either incredibly unlucky -- or he's got a problem knowing when to
quit.
As for this being off-topic, HE'S the one who came here, looking for advice
about whether he can fly with two DUIs. As many have already stated, I'd
say he should be able to fly -- but who the heck is going to hire him? In
a highly competitive job market, employers are just looking for ways to
"weed out" applicants.
What chance would he have, when there's 25 guys WITHOUT a DUI conviction
begging for the job?
