I'm curious how you determined your 6th grade teacher had "booze in his coffee mug on his desk."

Great guy though. |

Never had any concrete evidence but my German teacher junior and senior year would often come in looking like hell. He would then give us some basic time wasting assignment to eat away 50 minutes. Not sure he was ever loaded in class but we were probably sure Mr. H partied hard.

11th grade English teacher kept a cup of "coffee" on her desk every day.
You could smell the bourbon at 20 paces. She went out for a procedure and we got a smoking hot substitute for the rest of the year. I did not hit it.

Mr. Christopherson. He was "high functioning". He was a good teacher, but you could definitely smell the booze on him. My sister graduated a few years after me, and she said she actually saw a bottle in his desk drawer.

8th grade math teacher...1968...we would be doing home work in class, he'd go into the hallway and smoke. When he was half way through the smoke the flask would come out... For his birthday that year we bought him a carton of Camel non filters....he really appreciated that...

My 8th grade Social Studies teacher was an old lush. She kept a bottle of vodka in her desk.
My choir director from grades 7-9 was also a lush. She would show up at 7:10 AM in her old Cadillac already hammered. I enjoy drinking in what I regard as moderation, and feel sorry for people who have no control over it or MUST have it at all times. |

7th grade, 1st period teacher (County History teacher/football coach) rolled into class hung over. My sister worked 3rd shift at a fast food place and would see him coming through at 5am drunk as shit.
One of only two teachers whose name I remember. He was a good guy. |

In 11th grade I had a computer teacher that drank a lot. You could always smell it on her.
This was a long time ago and instead of Apple II computers, our school was cheap and had Franklin computers (Apple knockoffs). Since computers were fairly new, the computer teacher didn't really know all that much about them, especially since it was a Pascal programming class so she wasn't familiar with Apple DOS. Anyway, one day we changed the boot software to scroll on the screen statements about the teacher being a lush. As it turned out, that was the same day the local news stopped by to do a story on how progressive my school was as it had computers in the class room. I still laugh when I think about it.... |

Not a drunk - a stoner.
College physics professor. Young guy, very smart. Long hair, played a Hammond organ, drove a VW van. He drove four of us on a skiing trip once, and we all thought we were going to die. He didn't smoke in the van, but there was this thick cloud of incense when we boarded the crazy train, so we knew he'd toked up before the trip. Highway driving was OK, but he got on the mountain, and drove the curves WAY faster than I thought was possible. We were actually drifting around some of the curves, with hundred-foot drops and no guardrail per se. He wouldn't slow down. Kept saying, "No problem, dudes, I got this!" |

Had two.
Lady came to work a few times ripped and slept at her desk and the teachers aid ran the class. She had Vodka in her thermos. Hell everybody knew even the parents. In high school I had a science teacher that drank. He came to school with the shakes and would hang out in his office connected to the classroom. He would come out of there with no shakes. |

College professor wreaked of booze. He was a microeconomics professor (he was a graduate of the London School of Economics) and used the alcohol industry for all his examples. He also invited us who were over 21 to meet him down the road for beer study.

I think it was wild turkey. He thought nobody saw him. If you got him really mad he would start yelling and end up spitting his dentures out of his mouth. He was really good at catching them in the air. |

Metals shop teacher, Korean war vet. ALWAYS had a white foam cup of coffee kept at sternum level. Coffee would go from black in the morning to clear tan in the afternoon.
He was a cool dude if you were cool. He was 6 months from retirement when I had him. |

7th grade English. Mrs. Lucyzinski (sp). Wasted every single day. Kept a bottle of booze in her boot, in the closet in the back of the class. This was well known. She drank out of a plastic cup that she'd mix soda with.
Finally got fired when she got pissed that one of the class periods did so poor on a test, that she put them in the garbage can and lit them, so she could put ashes on everyone's head for Ash Wednesday. True story. |

No drunk nuns
We had lay (he said Lay!) physics teacher who was in her twenties, had a nice body and on a good day you could see her nipples through her shirt-hey we were 17 A buddy of mine was just staying at her, mesmerized, one afternoon. Even his mouth was hanging open. I looked at him, back at her, back at him, this was going on for awhile. When she looked away I hauled off and punched him in the middle of his chest, he had been so mesmerized that he was completely caught off guard and fell off his stool with a windmilling of arms and a "AAAAAAH!" She looked over and he stood up, beat red said "Uh sorry" and sat back down. Never even considered ratting me out, just took it like a man and later that day when we were waiting for the school bus he threw my gym bag into the back of a passing pick up truck. God bless him. |

Last year of high school, a bunch of kids would go to a local bar and 'drink lunch'.
One day several of our teachers were on the other side of the bar. Eye contact was seriously avoided by all, and not a work was said. DADT. The teachers changed to a different bar after that, or so the gossip went. This was in a different country, in a previous century, and a previous lifetime. |

Mrs. Baker for junior English lit in high school.
She tried to cover it up with Listerine, but she smelled like bourbon, especially after lunch. Occasionally she would imbibe a bit too much and her eyes would get bloodshot and her speech would start to slur. |

I had one that had all the classic signs and symptoms of a career alcoholic. He got a DUI halfway through sophomore year and lost his license for a while. It was kinda weird riding your bike to school with one of your teachers. Sometimes he would walk but always had a sippy cup with him. He eventually got his license back but retired my junior year. Cool guy, great teacher just as long as he had some alcohol on board.

Had a drunk drafting teacher in high school. Older guy, kept a cooler in his office. Never seemed to be incapacitated or out of control but he did flip out one day at one of the students for talking or something, called him a "redneck retard". It was hilarious.

I wasn't in band, but the HS band teacher was an alcoholic for years. Everyone, including staff and parents, knew it.
When he cleaned up his act, did the AA thing and stuck with it, he was lauded for it publicly. |

Another high school gym teacher here in the late 80s.
We used to call him Mr. M******* and his Magic Cup because he always carried around a plain white styrofoam cup filled with coffee that was so Irish it had red hair and freckles. The later in the day you had him, the more in the bag he generally was. Junior year we had him for 6th period gym (last class of the day) and about all he could do was take roll call, throw us a kick ball and go sit in the corner. One time, I forget what we actually did, but he got pissed at us and he spent the entire gym class lambasting us in this rambling, incoherent diatribe that only a man looking out of a bottle at the world could generate. To this day I remember he started in about us not listening to him and by the time he finished he was bitching about something to do with his car and a mechanic and something about twenty dollars. |
