Don't Come drunk - to office - If you are loose, you lose your job
A clerk in a Central School barged into the Principal's room in a fully drunken state. The Principal called in the police and got him medically examined when it was confirmed that he was drunk. The clerk was removed from service against which he appealed to the CAT, which dismissed his application. On Friday, the Supreme Court confirmed the removal observing that Courts should not be guided by misplaced sympathy or continuity ground, as a factor in judicial review while examining the quantum of punishment.
An assessee told me of an interesting episode. He had gone to meet an Additional Commissioner. The peon or whoever was manning the door to the office was awfully drunk and demanded money from the assessee. He was furious and told the man that he was going to complain to the Additional Commissioner. When he went inside, he found that the Additional Commissioner was equally drunk!
