I’m going to Disney World...on the TAXPAYERS dime...She thought Mickey Mouse might have better anti-bullying advice.

I’ll bet she used to be a hall monitor.

I’ve been to these three day seminars. People mix business and pleasure. However, you need to pay for personal expenses, such as if you stay over in a resort an extra day for personal vacation.

She left hour early
Not big deal
BUT getting the uber rides paid for is a problem

Why the hell is an anti-bullying conference even needed——this could be handled locally?

The article picks at a lot of nits. While on official business, its not a crime to go out to eat at a location of ones choosing (keep costs within the per diem rate), or even to go out for personal entertainment (on ones own expense), but extending trips extra days, and including that as a business expense when it should be personal vacation is not ethical.

I will say its not unusual to stay over an extra evening as one is not required to have a workday go beyond 8-10 hours, and sometimes that late afternoon flight might result in a twenty hour day (I've done those with meetings on the east coast and then flying home to the west coast). But all in all, I think this person is either in trouble for more than this trip, or she pissed someone off and this is retribution.

Public Education and accountability are mutually exclusive. It was clearly for the children.
