What do I do if my co-workers are drinking on the job?

Also, they are always talking about very sexual things and it makes me very uncomfortable. This is a new collection agency that just opened about a month ago. They think they don’t have to follow and rules because the company is not big enough

If your co-workers are drinking on the job and making off color sexual remarks you need to speak with your immediate supervisor and document your complaints in an e mail to the supervisor while keeping a copy of such for future reference and need. If the problem continues, then you need to make a complaint with a representative of your local department of labor about the matter.
