  Case: Dress Code
Recently, my school has implemented a new dress code policy. If a teacher is violating dress code, they will be notified through an note from administration. However, some of the people who are issuing these violations are also violating dress code. How should this be addressed?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think if you wanted to avoid stirring up some animosity you could write a leave an anonymous note in their mailbox. Don't be abrupt about it, just write it as if you were telling them because they didn't even notice that they were breaking their own rules.

Comments: I don't think this is the best way to deal with the situation. Rather than leaving a note in their mailbox which is kind if an invasion of their privacy I would express your concerns to their supervisor.

Comments: I don't think that leaving an anonymous note will do much more than tick them off. Administration needs to be made aware of the issue so they may rectify it.

Comments: While letting them know they are breaking the rules they are enforcing can help, there is a slim chance it will. The best way to handle this will be to have all the rule enforcers retrained on dress code.
