The fact that they had a regular-service bar at their workplace but WE can't have one at ours is the real injustice facing all of Canada today!

Fun fact: MIT has bars inside of their CS building (Stata) and in some grad student dorms.

That's not very notable, U of T also has faculty clubs that are licensed. Most universities even have grad clubs/bars for students.

That's some MadMen shit. Surely this is just a hangover from the 1950s? Nope.

The Executive Officers Lounge was first issued a liquor licence at the 40 College St. headquarters in 1989, according to the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO).Β 

We knew better in 1989.

This pretty commonplace with law enforcement/military bases.
