[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a private school teacher who chaperones overnight trips. It’s written into our policy that we cannot drink when we are chaperoning, even when we are “off duty”’ in the evening. The reason for that, I’m guessing, is that we’re never really off duty. What if there’s an emergency at night? I chaperone less than I used to. Not because I can’t drink. That’s fine. It’s because I have to pay for my own meals, my room, etc. It’s too much of a financial hit for me. [/quote] Doesn’t the school pay for your room and food? Isn’t it a school trip?[/quote] Yeah that’s weird. All the overnights that DC went on, the teachers’ rooms and meals were paid for by the school. I don’t think they were paid any overtime or anything — essentially they are donating their own time outside of school, but they don’t also have to pay for the accommodations. [/quote]
