In short, feel free to complain and there is nothing wrong being unfair or mistreated.

rubbish response. original message was comparing standards applied to adults/teachers vis a vis students. you cant even correctly identify the premise of the argument.

Believe the original poster was referring to different standards applied towards adults, vs. children.

Yes I agree that if a teacher chooses to smoke, they should exercise discretion and try to avoid being seen by students, and also avoid smoking before work so they don't bring the third-hand smoke to their classrooms.
But to say teachers cannot smoke at all is rubbish. They are full grown adults with independent thought and the legal right to exercise their decision whether to do it or not. Double standards? Yes, there ARE double standards in society in the treatment of adults and children, in almost every aspect of life. What's wrong with that?

the ‘vocal’ ones here mostly are quiet in real life. only dare to ‘complain’ anonymously. most (real) KPs wont bother to reply or even read this thread.

Walk the talk.

not entirely true. teachers whose ‘rauchy’ private life somehow becomes public, will be invited for a session with the SLs. some ends up leaving the service etc. very hush hush. only those in the know, will know.
bottomline, if you’re caught doing something that jeorpadises your standing as a teacher, you’ll have to face the music.
so must live by the SAF’s 9th core value. can do anything but dont get caught
