Teacher Union

So, now that I'm finally at a school that I probably won't need a union, I have one. Last year, when I desperately needed one, nope, nothing... The committee members offered to take out all the new staff memberst today. Did I mention it lasted about an hour and a half and it was at the closest heurigen and they bought us lunch and drinks? How are we expected to work after a few glasses of wine/beer/etc.? And, to make it even more interesting, I have a "coaches meeting" at the same place in about 15 minutes. How is it possible that during the work day I'm going to exceed my general 2 drink daily limit... what I'd like to do is go to sleep, in fact I'm a bit worried that might be exactly what happens at the table... or on the bus. Ha!
