Fell victim to the same PC the public schools and public school teachers have been pushing on our kids...
So solly comrades...
If I had to babysit a bunch of 8th graders, you'd bet I'd be at the bar too.
LOL! As an ex-teacher of 8th graders, I agree with you!
Although teachers are known as enthusiastic consumers of adult beverages (well, at least the ones I worked with), there's an appropriate time and place for it.
now if the teachers in question had performed a live simulation of how homesexuals perform intercourse...
They would have gotten a raise !
Very early on in my earning years I learned to never, ever mix alcohol with anything work related.
I think they should have abstained from alcohol for the field trip because they have a level of responsibility and the parents put their trust in them. Lucky for them no crisis came up.
Now that would call for a resignation!!!!!
And because no crisis came up they should have said SCREW YOU !!!
What do you mean?
If teachers want to drink like real businessmen do, let them get real jobs.
You're an idiot!
If teachers want to drink like real businessmen do, let them get real jobs.
Yeah in Upper Management:
An Indian walks into a cafe with a shotgun in one hand pulling a male
buffalo with the other. He says to the waiter, "Me want coffee."
The waiter says, "Sure chief, coming right up." He gets the Indian a
tall mug of coffee. The Indian drinks the coffee down in one gulp, turns
and blasts the buffalo with the shotgun, causing parts of the animal to
splatter every where, then just walks out.
The next morning the Indian returns. He has his shotgun in one hand
pulling another male buffalo with the other. He walks up to the
counter and says to the waiter, "Me want coffee."
The waiter says, "Whoa, Tonto! We're still cleaning up your mess from
yesterday. What was all that about, anyway?"
(hang on, this is really good......)
The Indian smiles and proudly says, "Me training for upper management
position: Come in, drink coffee, shoot the bull, leave mess for
others to clean up, disappear for rest of day.
They would have gotten a raise !
In more ways than one.
L. O. L. !!!
Dittos on that. I used to teach 6,7,8th graders. (Private school). There were many days I went home and cracked open a beer, or two, or three.
Yes. The Teachers Lounge between classes.
There are those right here on FR who would say that it's no big deal if it were the students who had been drinking. Yet those same members will come down on teachers who were "off-duty" and ADULTS getting a drink.
YEs - the rules for such trips are that there is NO Alcohol. Yes, these teachers were idiots for drinking (despite the fact that this is apparently a long standing tradition). They were responsible for these kids - and should have acted like it.
