[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who needs to know what's wrapped up and in a bag? Only the recipient, that's who. When we give alcohol, I carry it into the school and my kids come meet me in the  lobby and go distribute with "My mom says to definitely open this once  you're at home and not at school" - it was cute when my daughter asked if she could wink when she said it.

If you jeopardized my job and my ability to feed my family because you think something is cute you are a terrible person.

I have gotten alcohol as a gift.  Any respect I had for that family was gone in that moment.  [/quote]

Why are you so uptight? We give it at the very end of the day, wrapped in a bag with the teacher's name clearly labeled. THey take it home and have a nice bottle of wine. What kind  of crap school are you working at that people are going through your things? Maybe you should be upset at THOSE terrible people. [/quote]

I thought every school had a no alcohol, no smoking policy anywhere on campus.[/quote]

Sure, that's probably a formal policy. But who'd want to work at such an uptight school where the principal or someone goes through your bags as you leave for the day unwrapping gifts you were given to make sure none have alcohol, or are Cuban cigars or whatever. [/quote]

YOU are clearly comfortable with breaking rules and the law. Thankfully, most of us who work in school systems are not.[/quote]

Guess you'd freak out to know I work in a school system. I won't tell you. [/quote]

I don't care if you shared or not. Breaking rules because they don't matter to you because you're protected by a union says all I need to know. [/quote]

The thing is, you'd never know. I wouldn't go prancing through the school hallways yelling "Look what I got!", wouldn't brag about it or show others. I'd just graciously accept the gift and take it home. [/quote]
