My Mother
My mother used to work as a families liaison officer for "wait for it"
Alcoholics Anonymous.
Well one particular Christmas she announced that she was off to the office party, which consisted of a West End show, a nice meal and then home.
All good and well you think, when you consider who she was working for, well to cut a long story short the phone rang at 1 in the morning, it was a policeman could I please come down to the local railway station and collect my mother who was as pissed as a fart and her equally pissed workmates.
I was so embarassed my mother could barely stand, one of her colleagues had thrown up in her handbag, another was vomiting in the gutter when I arrived.
I had to drive them all home, but the best bit was calling home at 07:30 to ask if she had had a restful night and being told to "fuck off", the upside was of course after this when she starts to crow about the evils of the demon drink, all I have to do is remind her of that evening.

mmm
... though perhaps "reminding her of the incident" only serves to prove _her_ point, rather than act as some kind of counter argument.

AA doesn't employ family liasion officers
In fact AA doesn't employ anyone as a rule - there are some admin people who stuff envelopes etc at the UK General Service Office in York.

Maybe you are thinking of some commercial rehab operation?

I do hope you're not suggesting that this story is made up.

She probably works in the call centre,
but raith50 has glammed up her job title a little.
