Buying cigs for kids

Would you buy cigs for an under-16 year old if they asked you?

Yeah, and booze. The stories I hear of kids in Year 8 upwards down the sea wall and town centre in Canvey every weekend is awful. You should hear what the Year 7's get up to, too.... :nope:

V true.
And apparently there are photos of them ALL OVER facebook...

We caught out one student with a picture that was posted on Facebook and what he said about some of the teachers. This was on an open group slagging off the school which everyone could see. Silly gits, dont know what trouble they can get themselves into.

I know. It's all open and it's all accountable.
A load of students arranged a 'beat up such and such' event this week. Police involved and every one who they were 'attending' is being involved.
Trouble is it is a grey area as to how far school gets involved. So much bullying on there now, is it really schools responsibility? Yes in many ways, but is it policeable? Hmm....
What I originally meant though was all the drunken/nakedness/sex that goes on and is *apparently* well documented on FB. Girls ending up in v risque photos posted on FB...
Bad times.
 
I got asked by a few kids today to buy fags for them, naturally I refused. Annoyingly I thought of a witty remark about 5 minutes later so next time I'm asked I know exactly my response...if I can remember it in time.
 
Not quite buying but a funny story anyway. Mate of mine who I used to work with when we used to go for our liquid lunch we used to have to walk past a secondary school and he would always get asked if smoking by some of the kids if he had a spare one. He always refused, then he decided to play a joke, he pulled some backie out of the top put an exploding cap thing in there and replaced the backie. He then waited till he was asked again and had it marked in his box especially. And like clockwork he was asked and the kid lit the fag started taking a couple of lugs and then *BOOM* he jumped about 6 foot in the air and looked like he was going to cry. LOL! He never got asked for a cigarette again from kids of that school.
 
Despite looking about 12 I sometimes get asked to buy cigs for "hang-a-bouts". I always refuse, mainly because I hate smoking but also because I know exactly what can happen if you are caught.

Working part time at Tesco when I was at uni, they used to show examples of people that had bought Cigs/Booze for kids and then been caught, and if I remember correct, it's a £5k fine a criminal record and possible imprisonment, and I just haven't got 5k to gamble for the sake of making 50p out of stealing their change!

Yep thats right. Also, your manager would get it in the neck as well.
