The answer

Working in a place that sells alcohol is forbidden due to the : "Allah has cursed alcohol and has cursed its drinker, its server, its distiller, its producer, its seller, its buyer, its carrier, the one to whom it is carried, and the one who consumes its price." If alcohol touches the body or clothes, it is more cautious to wash them before prayer, because the majority of scholars consider alcohol to be a physical impurity, while some consider it a spiritual impurity. Alcohol touching the body does not invalidate ablution.
