Arrested - should work be informed?

Unless the person concerned works in Public Office i.e. Police Officer, Prison Officer or a job where CRB is concerned then no work do not need to know. Absolutlely has nothing to do with work!! End of.

Of course. Integrity has no place here.:eek:
In reality it is unlikely he was arrested 'just' for being a bit tipsy.
Those who drink too much and then behave badly take up too much of the police's time as it is.
Given that you say he has already upset his co-workers, I wonder if a change in his attitude might help???:rotfl:

If he gets a conviction for that, at worst formal recorded caution, then we are all bloody guilty pmsl.

Well actually we know that he has been convicted for that. The OP told us he was convicted and fined £100.. So not a formally recorded caution - a conviction. Personally I am sure that I wasn't "bloody guilty pmsl" - but if you want to plead to it as conspiracy charge, then that's fine by me.

Well it's all irrelavent now...Got to work tonight and everybody was talking about it! The item in the paper was spotted and word got around. Employee in question wasn't in but the shift manager told me that it's been referred to the store manager, but it's unlikely anything will come of it.
I do hope he will learn a lesson from this. I know from people who socialise with him that he can get quite 'lairy' when drunk so I think he probably mouthed off to the police. At 29 he should know better though! Thanks for the replies.

Maybe some good has come out of this then, let's sincerely hope he has learned a lesson, if he was genuinely worried about losing his job, you should constantly remind him at every opportunity how close he came to losing it whenever he gets a bit lairy..... maybe he'll change his attitude.
There's nothing I can't stand more than a loud, gobby, lairy drunk.... and I should know because I'm one of them.
:think: Come to think of it, I'm just the same when I'm sober.
