We have a no drinks policy. But I have an LOD that apparently can't work without a Starbucks cup within arms reach. I legit never see them without a coffee. And they just leave them wherever. To the point where it pisses off other LODs...
And I almost passed out twice working in my FR because of where it's located by the back room, and how ridiculously gross and muggy our store get when it even sprinkles a bit. One of our closing LODs even got sick from it once, so it clearly wasn't just a me issue. So, I made it a point to talk to my etl-hr. We had a fan requestioned by my next shift & I was given "permission" to have closed container water, so long as it was kept out of sight ( a la keep it in the closet).
I also was given permission basically when I worked for a week and a half straight with a death cold during holidays. Because if I didn't have liquid, I'd basically be unable to breathe as soon as I started busting my butt && get hot during stocking. So it was easier to let me keep water with me, instead of letting me stop to get a drink from a fountain every five minutes, But I also didn't try to be a pain about it/ take advantage, make it noticeable or leave a mess.
