6 months is real progress; don't let the job stress take that away from you. I spent 15 years in food service and bartending, so I get the fear. That industry runs on alcohol, and it's totally normal to partake at work.
If that's where you're coming from, it might be worth looking outside it for now: warehouse, retail, admin, healthcare support, somewhere alcohol isn't available and has a zero-tolerance policy. Not forever, just until sobriety feels less fragile.

Thanks for sharing, and congratulations on 6 months:tada:
Had to leave service industry behind. Aldi was a good job for me. Used that customer service experience, it keep me so busy and got me back to physical labor I like. Still terrible hours, so that’s the same😂
If you lived closer to me in Southern California, primarily south orange county I'd set you up with an interview with my employer. The pay of amazing, the benefits are incredible with a chance of a take home vehicle
