Happy Hour
Director
City life is repetitious and all about work. It always comes with night life and a lot of drinking after work, because people always try to escape from the stress at work, or even from family and relationships. What we call "happy hour" here is the hours we have fun after work - night life. Therefore, if "HAPPY hour" is our night life, then what are those "UNHAPPY hours"?
