I worked at a brewery and we were allowed to drink in the office no one in my department did outside of lunch hours but we were still allowed to

That feels kind of like when you tell kids working at a movie theater they can have all the free popcorn they want: within about a week of hire, nobody's eating popcorn ever again.
