Have any of your associations put out a climate and culture survey to your union members? I'm hearing that there are many districts that have surveyed their members anonymously regarding assessing the climate and culture within their school community. 


If so, would you please provide me with a list of possible questions that you would deem to be appropriate and effective to gauge any possible issues? 


Naturally, the questions need to be without bias and completely anonymous. No Google forms.

I’ve got about 8.5 years and still struggle with dealing with friends who get drunk and are complete assholes. I know I should have empathy but I just want to kick their ass. What I should do is Thank God (agnostic) I am sober today. If I was drinking I would have kicked his ass, faced the consequences, made amends, and lost friend(s).

Does anyone have any advice for supporting and coping with someone going through withdrawal? My husband is trying to quit his weed addiction and he has been irritable and mean since he quit.

Ex wife gets married tomorrow. Didn’t think it was bothering me but I dropped my kids off at her house for the rehearsal and I’m struggling to keep distracted. I know having a drink only destroys the trust I’ve rebuilt, but I don’t want to feel like this.

Do we have any other runners in this group? I have found that it can be hard, painful, grueling, challenging, and incredibly humbling. Challenging myself to run, when I just want to escape by doing nothing is always the better option. My stressful day/ situation melts away and even if I feel like crap due to the heat, fatigue, or non-stop hills it’s better than a hangover 100% of the time.

My boyfriend of a year got a DUI this weekend and has had drinking problems in the past. He fully admits he is an alcoholic, and will do therapy/go to AA moving forward. My therapist suggested I be a “computer program running in the background” and essentially leave him to allow him to work on himself. This is obviously a really hard decision, and I feel like I should listen to my therapist, but my heart is pulling me the other way. Anyone else been through something similar or have advice?

Friendly reminder: You are not in this alone. Reach out to one of us. Go to a meeting. Talk to your support group. I know the holidays can be rough.

Someone in my firms bowl just wrote about needing to pass a drug test. Out of 40 replies mine was the only one to say, ‘Get the help you need’ ... we use substances (pick your poison) to mask feelings and emotions. They all recommended ways to treat the symptom (request different engagement, stall it out, fake urine, etc). I hope theirs good people out there where I work, otherwise I may be looking to jump ship to protect my sobriety. Sobriety is no. 1 above all else. Grateful for 65 days sober

I’ve been sober for a few months and there are a few cocktail parties coming up at work. It’s “encouraged” to attend. Any advice? I have been to a couple backyard parties over the summer where I was around alcohol but I was mostly among friends. This is going to be different. Anyone else ever have a situation like this? Any advice is appreciated.

Status check - how's everyone doing? Should we start a weekly meeting in this bowl? Like a virtual meeting?

Stopped drinking a year ago after a particularly rough period. Lately I’ve been having thoughts and considerations around starting again. I think my friend circle has changed a lot so I wouldn’t fall into that crazy party lifestyle. Has anyone stopped then started again successfully? I never drunk THAT much but it was impacting my life (sending stupid messages I shouldn’t have been sending) and getting blackout occasionally. I do think it was having a negative impact on my life
